The City is advancing phase one of a major roadway restoration project on North Concord Street (Route 126) to improve sidewalk, roadway, and drainage conditions in the area. Proposed improvements will include a new increased-capacity drain and catch basin system, road pavement restoration, granite curbing, new cement concrete sidewalk, ADA compliant wheelchair ramps, new fiber conduit duct bank and geometric/safety improvements at the Concord / A Street intersection.
Localized flooding issues exist near the Concord Street and A Street intersection and on the south side of the Massachusetts Turnpike that require the replacement of three culverts in the vicinity to improve flood water conveyance.
Funding
The project is partially funded by a $458,000 federal grant for drainage (culvert) improvements.
