US Route 3 Corridor Improvement Project – Phase 5 Penacook Village

Construction activity is now in full force from the Boscawen Town Line to the Boudreau Square area along Village Street.  The electrical contractor has mobilized and has begun work on the underground electrical circuit work for the new street lights. This work will continue next week along the easterly side of Village Street from the bridge southerly towards Merrimack Street and generally includes excavation and placement of conduit within the sidewalk and street crossings in that area.  FL Merrill Construction will continue with the drain work in and around Boudreau Square area all of next week. Meanwhile the overhead utility work will continue through next week with removal of some of the overhead lines along the east side of Village Street from Washington Street to the bridge along with some of the side streets in the area.  On-street parking from Canal Street to Merrimack Street will be affected at times within the immediate work areas.  Commuters can continue to expect delays through the work area as the contractor continues this work as well as prepares for paving in the upcoming weeks.
