- Worcester Road Water and Sewer Imp – Phase I East
This project is part of a three-phase project to upgrade and improve the reliability of water and sewer infrastructure on Worcester Road between Concord Street and the Natick town line.
This project is needed because most of the existing infrastructure is between 50 and 100 years old, and the service area includes major portions of Framingham’s retail businesses and large apartment complexes, where emergency repairs and the disruption of service and traffic would be very costly and affect the quality of the lives of many during outages.
The main goals of this project are as follows:
The scope of work of Phase I of this project consists of replacement and installation of approximately 4,400 linear feet of new 8-inch to 12-inch water main and appurtenances and approximately 1,900 linear feet of new sewers ranging in size from 8-inch to 12-inch diameter with associated manholes and structures. The project is located on Route 9 – Eastbound from Concord St. to the Natick Town line.
A winter moratorium from November 15 through April 1 applies to this project. Additional activities related to the general scope of work are as follows: Maintenance of wastewater and stormwater flow and water service during work; overlay milling and paving on the State highway in accordance with MassDOT’s Access Permit; and traffic management to minimize disruption to local residents and businesses.
The project is now completed.
