Construction Kick-off Update - Anticipating Fall '23 Start

The City's Engineering Division is currently working with our project design consultants at Terta Tech and our general contractors Charles Construction and D&R paving to prepare for the initial phases of work along Western Washington St.

Work is currently expected to begin sometime this fall. Additional notification will be provided to nearby residents and shared here once plans are finalized.

Charles Construction and D&R Paving are also the City's general contractors on the currently ongoing Pearl St. Reconstruction and Safety Improvements Project. Crews will be working to complete that project over the coming weeks prior to beginning work on Western Washington.

Visit our Pearl St. project page for more info on that project and photos of street safety improvements being installed (including Somerville's first ever neighborhood traffic circle).
