Roadway Improvements – Conant Street

The Danvers DPW continues to work on this season’s roadway improvements. The Conant Street Paving Project will begin on Monday, August 29th, and will continue for an estimated 2-week period. During this time, we ask motorists to seek alternate routes to avoid construction and delays. Detours may be in place during the duration of the project. We ask you to allow extra time when traveling in the area to account for this construction as delays may occur.
Please note, that this schedule is weather permitting and is subject to change. Updates will be provided as needed. The project is planned to be completed before the start of the upcoming school year so as to not interfere with school commutes.
If you have any questions regarding this project now or during construction, please do not hesitate to call the DPW Office at 978-777-0001 x3011.
Thank you for your cooperation.
