Town schedules overnight sewer work for Main and Vine Streets next week

The Town of Saugus has notified residents about overnight sewer work scheduled for next week to rehabilitate a sewer subsystem on portions of Main and Vine Streets. The project will include the cleaning and lining of sewer lines in sewer subsystem 3A, as well as repairs to remove excess water inflow and infiltration (I&I) in the sewer system, according to a press release issued this week by Town Manager Scott C. Crabtree’s Office.

The overnight sewer work schedule is as follows:

  • Sunday, Feb. 2 around the intersection of Main Street and Forest Street
  • Monday, Feb. 3 through Wednesday, Feb. 5 on Main Street between Route 1 and Newhall Avenue
  • Thursday, Feb. 6 on Vine Street extending from the Main Street intersection

The cleaning and repair of sewer lines will take place overnight from 6:30 p.m. to 6 a.m. on the designated work days. The community can expect some traffic impact in the work zones. Police details will be used for each shift, and efforts will be made to mitigate any traffic disruptions. Traffic detours will be established if necessary.

This sewer rehabilitation project aims to eliminate sources of water leaking into the sewer system that strains its capacity, can cause sanitary sewer overflows and increase the town’s costs for transportation and treatment of these flows. The project will also improve the structural integrity of these areas.

The town thanks you in advance for your patience and cooperation during this project, which will result in better quality and more reliable sewer infrastructure for the community. If you have any questions about the overnight sewer work or the sewer subsystem 3A project, please contact Town Engineer Kevin Hallion at 781-231-4032.
