HOSMER SAFE ROUTES TO SCHOOL PROJECT
PREPARATION FOR FINAL PAVING
BOYLSTON STREET, FROM FAIRFIELD ST. TO CHAUNCEY ST. INCLUDING
INTERSECTIONS; CHAUNCEY STREET
Due, to weather conditions, the schedule of work by J. Tropeano, Inc. has been modified. The
preparation work for final paving at the Hosmer Safe Routes to School is now scheduled for next week.
Work will include:
• Raising castings.
• Pavement milling of transition areas at the work limits on Chauncey Street and Boylston Street at
each intersecting street including School Street on Friday, May 3. Expect parking restrictions and
road closures during this phase of the work, however the work will be phased so as not to impact
school pick-up/drop-off.
• Final paving is scheduled for Saturday, May 4, WEATHER PERMITTING. You will be notified again
prior to this work.
• Final loaming and seeding, tree planting, and landscaping will proceed after final pavement to
complete the project, as will crosswalk and line painting.
• The Watertown Police will be informed of the construction and its effects, including the need for
extended on -street parking due to driveway repairs. They will be present to assist residents' through
the work zone.
We understand that the process is noisy, messy and disruptive and apologize in advance for
inconvenience you may experience. We know you will enjoy the improved appearance and condition of
your roadway for many years in the future. Should you have any questions, please call the office at 617-
972-6420.
