Next week, barring inclement weather, you can expect to see continued excavation and duct bank installation at our work sites on Furnace Brook Parkway, Newport Avenue, Field Street Substation.

In addition to duct bank installation for the North Quincy Cable Project, National Grid Gas is also replacing existing gas mains and connections on Newport Avenue. Next week this work will shift to a daytime work schedule. Crews will work from the Newport Avenue-Beale Street intersection in the direction of Furnace Brook Parkway.

As always, we ask that drivers and pedestrians remain mindful of lane shifts, posted traffic signage, and the direction of police details stationed around these work zones.

Please know that construction is scheduled to minimize the impact on traffic and everyday life; sections of your street will likely only be impacted by the construction for weeks—not years. That said, we understand that construction doesn’t always feel “short-term” when it’s in front of your home or business. As work begins in your area, we will continue to work to mitigate inconveniences that come up to the greatest extent feasible. Please let us know about upcoming deliveries, schedules, and events that could be impacted by work.

*Please note, due to the complexities of outdoor construction, schedule is subject to change.
