Dedham Square Project Update, Changes: Ornamental Light Poles Instead of Fan-Style

The contractor is continuing work on punch-list items from 7 p.m. to 5 a.m.


The Dedham Square Improvement Project is winding down as the contractor is continuing to work on punch-list items this week from 7 p.m. to 5 a.m.

Project punch-list items are miscellaneous tasks that need to be repaired and/or replaced. Things such as signage corrections, removal and installation of etched granite parking space numbers, replacement of bricks within the sidewalks and crosswalks, replanting or replacement of trees and plantings. 

Several on-street parking spaces may be unavailable while work is taking place, and 'no parking' signs will be in those spots to let drivers know they can't park there.
