Dedham Square Project Update for August 13-15

This week the focus will be on pouring the new concrete sidewalks on High Street, Washington Street, and Eastern Ave.  The sidewalks will be temporarily closed for one week, however, temporary access ways will be provided for all businesses and residential property.

The sidewalks on the easterly side of Washington Street (from the CVS) to High Street will be closed for up to two weeks.  And pedestrians can expect ten parking spots to be closed while work is being done in that area.

On Thursday, August 16, the contractor plans to work from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m.  During that time they will install underground electrical conduits for the street and traffic lights for two intersections.  They will work on High Street and Washington, and High Street and Eastern Avenue.

Also during the night shift, workers will remove existing curbing and concrete on the northerly side of High Street; between Eastern Avenue to Washington Street.

Contractors would also like to remind the town to take advantage of the additional 23 parking spots at the Keystone Parking Lot while construction is taking place.
