During public comment, residents raised concerns about the prolonged closure of Sackett Road, and the Board confirmed that the Sackett Road reconstruction is the Town’s top priority project. The Town has already secured a 2000000 grant for the work, completed preliminary design, sized the replacement culvert, and submitted permit applications to the DEC and Army Corps of Engineers, and is currently awaiting regulatory approvals before construction can proceed. This is a fully funded road and culvert replacement where engineering appears largely in place, but the meeting notes do not indicate that a construction contractor has been selected yet.Once permits are granted, the Town will need to move into bid and construction phases, creating an upcoming opportunity for heavy civil contractors, culvert suppliers, traffic control vendors, and construction inspection firms. Vendors can add value by advising on constructability, safety measures at the temporary detour intersection, and potential interim safety improvements while the road remains closed.

Engineering and permitting are being handled by MRB Group; no contractor or bid schedule is mentioned yet.
