Peterborough Street sidewalk contracts signed; pre-construction meeting set for March 19, minutes say
Summary
Draft minutes record that contracts were signed for Peterborough Street sidewalks, a Notice to Proceed was issued March 12, and a pre-construction meeting is scheduled for March 19; work will start when DOT allows and is expected this summer.
The EDC’s draft minutes state that contracts for sidewalks on Peterborough Street have been signed and a pre-construction meeting was scheduled for March 19. The minutes record that a Notice to Proceed was issued on March 12 and that construction may begin as soon as the New Hampshire Department of Transportation authorizes work in the right-of-way.
According to the minutes, work is expected to take place over the summer, beginning on the NE (plaza) side of the road and finishing on the SW side. The coordinator is recorded as committing to post updates about the project and the roundabout to the town Facebook page.
Why it matters: sidewalk improvements affect pedestrian safety, downtown access and businesses on Main Street. The minutes do not record a vote or provide contract dollar amounts or an explicit contractor name.
Next steps: project start is contingent on DOT permission and scheduling; the timeline in the minutes points to summer construction and further public updates via the coordinator.
