Dear Residents,

As spring approaches, we need to inform you that the water main construction project on Berlin Street and Lacey Road will be restarting soon.

We understand that construction work can be disruptive and that many of you have already experienced noise, traffic changes, and temporary inconviences during the earlier phases of this project.  We truly appreciate your patience and cooperation as this important infrastructure improvement moves forward.

Our contractor, Ludlow Construction, will resume their work on Berlin Street and Lacey Road tentatively on March 30, 2026.  This project is scheduled to conclude in late May, but there is a chance it could continue longer.  Work hours will be from 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. Please note that the traffic management plan from the Fall of 2025 will be utilized for this phase of the project.

The contractor will continue using the open space are at Berkley Court for storage of materials and equipment for the project.  The area will be restored to its original condition once the project complete.  Apologies for any inconvenience this may cause. 

Construction will require a road closure to through traffic on Berlin Street from Berlin Avenue to Pleasant Street with a detour. Eastbound traffic on Oakland Road will be detoured north on Berlin Avenue, east on Woodruff Street, and south on Pleasant Street. Westbound traffic on Berlin Street will be detoured north on Pleasant Street, west on Woodruff Street, and south on Berlin Avenue. Police presence and traffic management signs will be in place directing traffic during construction hours.

Berlin Street will only be open for BUSINESS ACCESS, LOCAL TRAFFIC and SCHOOL BUSES.

Again, we appreciate your understanding and patience during these construction activities. All measures will be taken to expedite this work to minimize the disturbance and inconvenience.
