Adams to Hold Public Meeting on Jordan Street Culvert Replacement Project

Print Story | Email Story
ADAMS, Mass. — The Town of Adams will hold a public meeting on Wednesday, March 27 from 4 pm to 6pm in the Adams Town Hall Board of Selectmen's room to discuss the Jordan Street Culvert Replacement Project.
 
Town staff and VHB engineers will be on hand to answer questions about the project, which will replace a culvert that carries Miller Brook into the Tophet Brook. The culvert is located behind 17 Jordan Street and collapsed several years ago due to failing walls.
 
The town is preparing to obtain environmental permits for a replacement culvert this spring and hopes to start construction later this year. The project will be funded with a grant from FEMA's Hazard Mitigation Program.
 
Residents are encouraged to attend the public meeting to learn more about the project and ask questions. For more information, please contact the Adams Department of Public Works at (413) 743-8300 or email ecoughlin@town.adams.ma.us.
