UPDATE! Newbury Street Water Main Replacement Project!
Posted by Homes Boston on Thursday, November 3rd, 2011 at 2:38pm.We wanted to update you on the progress of the Newbury Street Water Main Replacement Project.
The contractor’s anticipated completion date for the work between Gloucester Street and Fairfield Street is November 18, 2011.
In the past two days, Verizon and National Grid have had to implement construction in the Gloucester to Fairfield block. BWSC’s contractor discovered an unmarked abandoned gas service in front of 257 Newbury Street and National Grid mobilized a crew to disconnect the service. National Grid finished the work on November 2. Verizon has been relocating a duct bank that is in conflict with BWSC’s new water main between 257 and 261 Newbury Street. It is anticipated that Verizon’s work will be complete today.
Water main replacement construction will resume in spring 2012 in the block of Newbury Street between Fairfield Street and Exeter Street. We will notify you prior to the resumption of work in the spring.
The contractor is making every effort to minimize impacts to abutters, but the nature of the work results in some temporary inconveniences. We do appreciate your patience and understanding as we complete this complex project. Thank you.
Best regards,
Kate
