Adams Street & Sidewalk Improvement Project to Resume in Spring

By Sabrina DammsiBerkshires Staff
ADAMS, Mass. — Work on the paving and sidewalk improvement project along Smith, Randall, and Cherry streets was underway and is expected to continue in the spring.
 
The town awarded the project to Warner Bros. LLC, the lowest responsive bidder out of the four bids, with a base bid of $491,595, which included repaving a 1.5 inch mill and overlay and a five-and-a-half foot monolithic sidewalks on both sides of Cherry and Smith Street.
 
The town also accepted three bid alternates, bringing the total project cost to $664,546.75, funded entirely through the state's Chapter 90 program.
 
The three bid alternates includes crosswalk improvements at Summer and Cherry streets, milling and repaving of Randall Street, and constructing new sidewalks along the south side of Randall Street.
 
"The concrete work is pretty significant. They'll tear up all the old concrete, and they'll frame out new concrete, and they'll pour wet cement for curing. So, it takes a little bit of time, and then sometimes with these public works, they're kind of up against weather conditions," Town Administrator Nicholas Caccamo said.
 
"If the temperature starts to drop too quickly, the materials don't hold as well. So, they often will exercise a little bit of caution. They did review with the town last week that they're going to wait to do the rest of the project in the springtime." 
 
The town identified the streets as priorities in part because of its proximity to Winter Street, where officials have applied for a Community Development Block Grant to fund paving and stormwater improvements, he said.
