Cabot/Congress/Summit Streets - Our sidewalk contractor completed most of the reconstruction of the sidewalk and curbing in front of Rowand's and Congress Street as well as at the parking lot across from the Anchor. The contractor will finish the project when McCourt Construction completes the 115KV line installation in the area.  

It is important to note that there is no exact schedule or timeline. During sidewalk construction, it is possible that trees may need to be replaced. Please check this website frequently for Paving Related Updates. Follow us on Twitter @BeverlyEngineer.
