Fairhaven sidewalk repairs start next week
We’ll be replacing sections of sidewalk and several street trees along the 1100 block of 11th Street in Fairhaven starting Oct. 5. Work is expected to take about two weeks. Business access will be maintained, though on-street parking will be temporarily limited. The project will address sidewalk tripping hazards, replace dead or damaging trees, and enlarge some tree wells to give new trees more room to grow and help prevent future sidewalk damage. New trees will be planted after the sidewalks are complete. Thanks for your patience while we make these improvements!
