The Watertown Downtown Main Street Task Force is preparing for a reconstruction project of 11 blocks along Main Street.
The Task Force is looking to enhance the landscape of the historic downtown and create an accessible, modern, and vibrant experience for both visitors and residents.
There will be an extensive renovation of the infrastructure of Main Street that will include sidewalks, roadways, utilities, lighting, and public spaces. The new Main Street, as outlined by the Task Force, will be pedestrian friendly, oriented to commercial and retail spaces, of high-quality design, universally accessible, and will look to the future yet be responsive to the history of the corridor.
A comprehensive study of the needs of the downtown area has already been completed by the Task Force, which continues to hold meetings to engage the public on the fourth Wednesday of each month at City Hall.
A quarterly newsletter is in the process of being created by the Task Force to distribute to businesses and others interested in the project. The communications effort of the Task Force has also included a Logo Design for the project. In addition, members of the Task Force are serving as liaisons to property and business owners who will be affected by the construction once it begins. The goal is to keep businesses open during the project.
The project is scheduled to begin in 2028.
