CONSTRUCTION UPDATE – INTERSECTION OF BUSSEY STREET & COLBURN STREET
Beginning the week of October 21, contractors will be milling the existing pavement, and then fine grading the gravel subbase. This work is scheduled to start the week of 10/21/2024. The base course paving is scheduled to begin on Monday October 28, 2024 and continue through Tuesday, October 29, 2024.
Please note, heavy equipment will be present and operational. Access to all properties will be maintained during that period, however, please expect delays near construction crews performing the work.
Appropriate signage, law enforcement details, and advance advisory messages will be placed to guide drivers through the work area.
This schedule is weather-dependent and involves coordination with multiple subcontractors, so it may change. The Project Team will work with the Town of Dedham to communicate significant schedule changes, as needed.
CONSTRUCTION UPDATE – FINAL PAVING OPERATION: BUSSEY STREET, BOSTON TOWN LINE TO COLBURN STREET - BUSSEY STREET BRIDGE TO AIELLO DRIVE.
