News  Expanding Capacity for Municipal Culvert Replacement (Boxford)

Since 2017, DER has been supporting the Town of Boxford’s efforts to replace an undersized culvert on a tributary to the Parker River with a structure meeting improved stream crossing and engineering design standards. The design and permitting is complete and Boxford plans to install the improved culvert by June 2020 - helped in part by grant funding from DER. This site is part of our network of training sites across the Commonwealth. When construction is underway, DER and the Town will lead a training session on construction techniques and practices for road managers leading this type of project.
