John Livsey gave the DPW update: The sidewalk from Kandi Nails to Muzzey Street should be completed this week as well as the curbing from Conte Bikes to Waltham Street. Concrete will go down the following week. The Project is somewhat ahead of schedule. More benches are going in today and the carousel tables are arriving. There will be a new charging station on Edison Way. The new big belly trash receptacles are coming in and the old ones are going out. The Battle Green construction is not a part of the Streetscape Project. Its purpose is to improve access to the monuments. The Center parking lot reconstructions are in the queue for action but still a few years out. The project must be funded and designed first. It might not make it before 2025. Fred Johnson explained that the CVS lot is an impediment to the Center’s economic vitality. Anything we can do to accelerate the lots ahead of 2025 would be most helpful. There was some discussion of the parking lots reconstruction. Grain Mill Alley is going in as part of the Streetscape. There will be no action on the privately owned middle section between Mass Ave and the locus of the Bicycle Node.
