• Active construction has been suspended in observance of the Town of Wakefield‘s winter moratorium. The active work sites on Salem Street have been backfilled and the roadway has been temporarily restored.
  • Work is expected to resume in 2021 after the winter moratorium has been lifted.
• Over the coming weeks, crews may be on site to clean and prepare the areas; environmental inspectors will be monitor environmental conditions throughout the winter.

Once all project construction is complete, the project route will be repaved, curb-to-curb, at National Grid’s expense. This includes sections of Albion Street, Broadway Street, North Avenue, Main Street, Salem Street, and Montrose Avenue as well as street crossings at Bennett Street, Richardson Street, and Water Street.
