Road Maintenance Work Set to Begin End of Month

As part of the Arlington's ongoing 2013 Capital Improvement Program, the Department of Public Works will be performing road maintenance on various roads throughout town. This crack sealing project is being performed to extend the service life of the roads in Arlington.

Work is tentatively scheduled to be performed at the end of May and last one to two weeks, weather permitting.

“No Parking” signs will be posted prior to work starting. Residents are being asked to adhere to the No Parking request to allow the contractor full access to the repair area. A police detail will be present during the work to enforce parking requirements, as well as to assist residents entering and leaving the area.

The project area includes:

• Franklin Street (Warren Street to Parallel Street)
• Webster Street (Warren Street to Mystic Valley Parkway)
• Palmer Street (Warren Street to Mystic Valley Parkway)
• Beacon Street (Warren Street to Mystic Valley Parkway)
• Hamlet Street (Medford Street to Beacon Street)
• Lewis Avenue
• Jean Road
• Philips Street (Franklin Street to Beacon Street)
• Exeter Street (Park Street to River Street)
• Rawson Street (Warren Street to Mystic Valley Parkway)
• Dartmouth Street (Rawson Road to River Street)
• Cornell Street (Rawson Road to River Street)
• Bowdoin Street (Rawson Road to River Street)
• Amherst Street (Rawson Road to River Street)

Residents in these areas should expect some on-street parking restrictions to allow for construction activity and equipment. Residents are being asked to observe on-street roadway postings, and those traveling through these areas should allow for travel delays and consider alternative routes when possible.
