Pavement renewal 2023 work begins this week

PAVEMENT RENEWAL WORK STARTS THIS WEEK
>>> Bridgewater's annual pavement renewal work will begin the week of September 18

The Town of Bridgewater will be coordinating pavement renewal projects with a contractor, Dexter Construction Ltd., including planing and paving, in many areas of the community for approximately three weeks, beginning around the week of September 18, 2023.

In total, the Town of Bridgewater has allocated approximately $600,000 toward pavement renewal this year. That budget does not include several hundred-thousand dollars in allocations for new streets or project areas where underground infrastructure work is taking place.

WHAT TO EXPECT
Work is weather dependent. Each section of street will take anywhere from a few hours to a few days to complete. Generally, planing work will take place first and motorists should slow down and use caution when crossing the lip/drop between a planed area and regular pavement. The work will include traffic being controlled with traffic control personnel.

Every effort will be made to minimize the disruption to residents and businesses in order to complete the work, however motorists are advised to expect delays when travelling throughout Bridgewater during the work and to allow for extra travel time accordingly.

SPECIAL NEEDS
Individuals with special needs who may be uniquely impacted by this project should contact the Project Manager as soon as possible to make them aware of your situation. We will work with you in an attempt to minimize your inconvenience as much as possible.
