NOTICE TO RESIDENTS – MACINTOSH STREET ROAD WORK
Town of Berwick – Public Works Department

Dear Residents,
The Town of Berwick Public Works Department would like to advise residents and property owners on MacIntosh Street that road construction work, including the milling and repaving of the roadway, is scheduled to begin today and is expected to continue over the next two weeks, weather and site conditions permitting.

As part of this project, residents may experience temporary traffic delays, intermittent lane restrictions, increased construction-related noise, and the presence of heavy equipment within the work area. Access to properties will be maintained whenever possible; however, brief disruptions may occur as construction progresses.

We kindly ask residents to exercise caution when travelling through the construction zone and to follow all posted signage and directions from construction personnel to help ensure the safety of workers and the public.

These improvements are an important investment in the Town's transportation infrastructure and will help improve the condition and longevity of the roadway. We appreciate your patience, understanding, and cooperation while this work is being completed.

Should you have any questions regarding the project, please contact the Public Works Department.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Sincerely,

Aaron Dondale
Director of Public Works
Town of Berwick
Public Works Department
