News from the Cable Replacement Team

From the Cable Replacement Team. 


 Good evening -

We're happy to announce that the fourth manhole installation (Fort Avenue) is now complete!

With construction at four out of the six manhole sites associated with the Salem Cable Project complete, this morning contractors began setting up the new work site on Essex Street, and began excavating for the manhole installations on the street. 

Please note that eastbound traffic on Essex Street will be detoured on to English Street. The westbound lane of Essex Street remains open. Extra parking is available for residents at the Bentley School lot on Szetela Lane. As work progresses at this site we plan to keep you updated with more information regarding timeline to completion. 

Today on Washington Square South, contractors continued working to connect the duct bank to the new manhole installations. Once connected contractors will continue installing duct bank in the direction of Washington Square East. Please be aware that it will be approximately two weeks until contractors are ready to begin work on Forrester Street.

This week on Congress Street contractors finished connecting the manholes to the duct bank near the corner of Congress Street and Dow Street. With these connections in place this crew will re-start the process of installing duct bank heading towards Leavitt Street.

We'll continue to keep you updated on the progress at all of these sites. If you have any questions please call our toll-free outreach hotline -- 844-SALEM-CABLE -- or email me directly via this address.

Thank you,
Darin
