Dear Neighbors --
Thanks again for following our newsletter updates. Here's the latest update on our work.

We're happy to report that duct bank installation on Cypress Street is complete. Contractors finished their work one week ahead of schedule, marking the completion of all underground duct bank construction for the Salem Cable Project. The remaining work in this area will primarily take place inside the Canal Street Station.

With the new transmission cables installed between Salem Harbor Station and the manholes on Fort Avenue, contractors are expected to being installing cable to connect the manhole locations on Hawthorne Boulevard, and Washington Square South. Please note that this work will take place from the Hawthorne Boulevard work site manholes, and is projected to last for approximately one week (weather depending).

As you may have noticed, cable installation is ongoing near the Washington Square South manholes. Contractors paused their work this week to accommodate a funeral service at O'Donnell's. As such, contractors may need to expand their timeline into next week at this location to make up for the time gap.

Please note that moving forward, most work will be focused on installing and splicing new cables, installing equipment in manhole, and finishing any remaining work inside the Canal Street Station.

As always, police details will be present to facilitate vehicle and pedestrian traffic management around construction sites. We ask that those on foot exercise caution when approaching these active work areas to minimize risks to personal safety, and to avoid any interference with construction.

We will continue to keep you updated with information from all of our work sites as it becomes available. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact a member of our outreach team. Our toll-free hotline is available for your calls (844-SALEM-CABLE). You can also reach us through the Contact Us page on our website.

Sincerely,
The Salem Cable Project
