May 2, 2022

The East Main Street Reconstruction Project is nearing completion. The following work is anticipated this week. Note, the work is weather dependent and schedule could change.

Wednesday May 4th:
The Contractor will conduct pavement milling of the side streets and approaches to East Main Street. Approximately 50-feet of each side street will be milled.
No detours are planned.

Thursday May 5th:
The Contractor will pave top course of the side streets.
No detours are planned.

Friday May 6th:
The Contractor will pave top course on East Main Street
In order to complete this work quickly and before the weekend, work will begin at 6 AM. A detour in the westbound direction (i.e. from the Rotary toward Main Street) will be clearly marked on Sandy Pond Road, Central Avenue, and Columbia Street.
Eastbound traffic will be accommodated on East Main Street as one lane will be paved at a time.

There will be traffic delays. Seek alternative routes. Police details will be onsite to direct traffic and detour signage is in place.

The road will be open to local traffic, the Ayer Town Library, Pirone Park and Ayer Court House.

This project is being managed by MassDOT and the Ayer DPW will be providing construction updates to provide work status and traffic impacts.
