Beginning June 10th, weather permitting, the City’s contractor, EJ Paving, will be performing partial roadway grinding and paving operations to enhance the road conditions on several sections of street around the City. The roadway grinding operation at each location is expected to take two days followed by paving of the roadway later that same week, or the following week (weather permitting). For a list of street sections to be re-surfaced, please see below.

Due to the nature of this work and the scale of each paving job, specific work dates on your street are not available. However, please be sure to watch for NO PARKING SIGNS, posted 24 hours in advance, which will indicate the exact location and dates when work will take place. Residents who have vehicles parked in the project area will need to move them prior to 7AM.

List of Street Sections to be Re-surfaced (please note, the entire street will not be re-paved, just the travel lane of the section within the limits listed):

  • Hollis St (Mass Ave to Rindge)
  • Berkley St (Berkley to Garden St)
  • Sumner Road (Cambridge to Kirkland St)
  • Gray St (Martin St to Linnaean St)
  • Bowdoin St (Martin St to Linnaean St)
  • Martin St (Bowdoin St to Wright St)

  • Pleasant St Ext (Memorial Drive to Putnam)
  • Vincent (Upland to Walden)
  • Rutland (Langdon to Shepard)

Please note: above is an anticipated list. Due to weather conditions and paving contractor schedules, some streets listed above may not be paved this, Summer. If it rains, the list may be limited. Any remaining streets would be added to the Fall paving schedule.

What to Expect During Construction:

  • General work hours will be 7 AM to 4 PM.
  • Emergency vehicles and City Services will have access at all times.
  • Police officers will be onsite to assist with traffic management.
  • Crews will make every effort to open the roadway as soon as possible.
