New Westborough Fire Station Groundbreaking Set

Westborough officials will break ground on the town's new fire station Tuesday night.

The 5 p.m. ceremony will be held next to the current station, at 42 Milk St., selectmen and the municipal building committee said Thursday in a press release.

Voters at the Oct. 15, 2012 special town meeting approved $11.2 million to design and build the new station.

Last month, selectmen awarded the construction contract to G & R Construction Inc. for $8.2 million.
