Active Resurfacing, Water & Sewer Construction Map
Main Street Construction
The City is embarking on a top-to-bottom reconstruction of Main Street. This is not simply a repaving project. We’re building a Main Street that is not just a way to drive from Point A to Point B…but a 21st century Main Street, that embraces modern urban design philosophies, that is built to encourage parking your car and walking to multiple experiences, all throughout downtown.
Due to this project, there will be construction activity happening along Main Street. Visit the Main Street project page to view the construction going on in the designated work areas.

Route 20 Sewer Extension Project
The City is committed to working with local businesses and residents to limit the disruption caused during this project. However, due to the nature of the work being done and the constraints of the project area, there will be impacts to traffic and businesses. We appreciate your consideration and patience while we work to complete this project.
Travelers on Route 20 can expect delays when traveling from the Route 146/Route 90 Interchange to Sunderland Road at the Worcester/Shrewsbury border. Expect delays for eastbound morning traffic and westbound afternoon traffic. Commuters are encouraged to seek alternate routes during this project duration.
