CABOT – In a Saturday, June 7, social media update, Cabot Road Foreman Sid Griggs said the Menard Road project is complete with the exception of guard rails which were supposed to be installed Friday afternoon or Saturday. The Fenoff Construction crew only ended up closing the road for three days to remove the old bridge.
Lovely Road was to be closed from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Tuesday, June 10, to replace a collapsed culvert, said Griggs, who apologized that Lovely Road hadn’t been graded yet as he was waiting to replace the culvert to do the job.
Jug Brook is now closed, with a bypass in place to pump water around the site where footers and walls will be placed, so it can dry out. He expected to provide an update via Facebook Tuesday afternoon.
Griggs added that lines will be painted in front of the businesses in the village, the road crew will be painting stop bars and crosswalks, finishing up spring grading, and roadside mowing on the blacktop before July 4, along with some ditching projects.
