The focus of the MWRA’s project on Adams Street has been in the Milton Village area for the past couple of months. The pipe has just about been completely installed in Milton and the pressure testing is just about completed. Next week, or the week just after the 4th of July will see the paving program begin. A paving contractor will put the final course on Adams Street, up over the hill. In addition, Adams Street between Centre and Brook will be paved starting on July 1st. Neighbors and motorists will soon notice the raised castings. The traffic around the paving will flow at the direction of the Milton Police Department. Watch for temporary detours.

Neighbors in the Milton Village area will see a pit activated on Adams Street just in front of Citizen’s Bank. This pit will be there for four or five days while connections are made and there will be activity on Adams Street between the MBTA bridge and the Neponset River Bridge. The activity between the bridges will last about two weeks.

Within a week or two of the Fourth of July, work will begin on the approach slab on Bryant Avenue. This work is expected to take two to three weeks.

Completion of these tasks represent the conclusion of most of the work in Milton. There will be some paving required around East Milton Square. There will be an update when that work is scheduled. Pipe installation and cleaning will be continuing in Dorchester Lower Mills.
