11/13/23 – South Street Sidewalk Forum

The MDOT project manager for the South Street sidewalk project will attend (virtually) Monday’s Select Board meeting to provide an update on the status of the project, hear public comments on the work to date, and answer questions from the Select Board and the community about the reasons for the delayed completion, MDOT’s plans for completing the work this year, and other matters related to this long-delayed project.  It is expected that the forum will be one of the first items to be addressed during the Select Board meeting, which begins at 5:30pm.
