Reconstruction of Avery Street Phase 5

For your information, the reconstruction of Avery Street from Hitchcock Way to Dart Hill Road will begin starting the week of July 19, 2021. The Town is improving this portion of Avery Street with drainage improvements to accommodate some widening by Talcott Ridge Road, full depth reconstruction of the roadway with new base, pavement, bituminous curbs, and improving concrete sidewalks with new accessible ramps and extending the sidewalks to Dart Hill Road.  

Spazzarini Construction will be working on this project and will begin with stakeout, cutting the pavement, installation of erosion control measures and drainage improvements.   They will excavate the old pavement and base, and install new stone base and pavement.   Sidewalks and raps will be constructed. Final work will include paving of driveway aprons and lawn establishment. We anticipate that the entire project will be substantially completed by the end of November.

Avery Street will remain open during the entire period of construction but expect traffic delays while the contractor is performing his work. One-way alternating traffic will be maintained in the immediate area where work is being performed. Access to your property will be maintained and gravel may be temporarily placed to transition from your driveway to the road excavation. Normal working hours for the contractor(s) will be from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. We appreciate your patience during this construction phase of the project.
