Public Meeting Notice  Ipswich - Resurfacing and related work on Central and South Main Streets

A virtual public informational Meeting will be hosted on the MassDOT website below to present the design for the proposed project in Ipswich, MA..

Purpose:

The purpose of this meeting is to provide the public with an update of the project and discuss the project schedule. An overview of the project improvements will also be presented. All views and comments submitted in response to the meeting will be reviewed and considered to the maximum extent possible.

Proposal:

The proposed project consists of roadway corridor and intersection improvements on Central Street and South Main Street, from Mineral Street to County Street.
