Selectmen award paving contract as Herrick Road work planned
Summary
Selectmen opened paving bids and awarded the job to Thibodeau (lower bid) to complete paving starting on the Sedgwick side of Herrick Road; the board discussed culvert replacement and other road repairs.
Selectmen opened paving bids and accepted the low bid from Thibodeau to complete specified paving work, including sections of Herrick Road beginning on the Sedgwick side, the board reported at a meeting where bids were presented.
Officials said Thibodeau submitted the lower bid for 295 tons at about $117 per ton and the board voted to award the contract and notify the contractor. The board also reviewed other road needs: several culverts (Herrick Road, Ferry Road, Wharf Road and Haylanding Road) were ordered for replacement and the town is coordinating schedules with the road commissioner and vendors.
The Selectmen discussed temporary traffic and staging while work is scheduled to begin and said they will coordinate with Sedgwick officials where work spans town lines. Separately, the board approved temporary signage restricting mine deliveries on Goos Falls Road at the mine crew's request.
Background: Brooksville earlier authorized funding movement for road projects and has been soliciting bids for multiple sections; replacement of culverts and targeted paving are ongoing priorities for the town.
Next steps: Town staff will finalize the contract with Thibodeau, schedule the work, and bring any needed traffic or budget approvals back to the Selectmen if required.
