Concrete sidewalk and apron installation
Resident of Edgecliff Road
The Watertown Department of Public Works and our contractor, Newport Construction, will begin the
excavation, forming and pouring of concrete sidewalks and driveway aprons.
The excavation and form work of driveway aprons is scheduled to start, WEATHER PERMITTING, Monday,
October 29, 2018 and concrete installation will be Tuesday October 30, 2018. Your vehicles must be
removed from the driveway by 7:00 AM. Typical work hours will be 7 AM to 4 PM.
• During the concrete installation process wooden planks will be placed across walkways to access your
residence.
• Please do not park your car next to any areas marked in front of your residence during construction.
• Driveways may remain closed up to three days to permit the concrete to cure.
• Please note that there may be lapses in time between sidewalk excavation, installing wood sidewalk
forms, and final concrete work.
• Adjustments necessary to make sidewalks and driveways ADA compliant may require minor regrading
of areas beyond the back of sidewalk, such as landscaping, driveways or walkways. The Department
will match existing materials and finishes to the maximum extent possible.
• The Watertown Police will be informed of the construction and its effects, including the need for
extended on -street parking due to driveway repairs.
We apologize for the short notice and understand that the process is noisy, messy and disruptive and
apologize in advance for any inconvenience you may experience. We know you will enjoy the improved
appearance and condition of your sidewalks for many years in the future.
Should you have any questions, please e-mail dpwdept(cDwatertown-ma.gov or you may call Ed Baptista,
Highway Supervisor, at 617-972.6420.
Sincerely,
Gerald S. Mee, Jr.
