Open Date Extended On Hopkinton Main Street Corridor Project Bid

HOPKINTON, MA — MassDOT moved the bid opening date for the Hopkinton Main Street Corridor Project to Aug. 25. The decision to extend the date was based on input from Construction Industries of Massachusetts.

Due to the project’s size and scope contractors have asked for additional time to fully review and prepare a responsive bid.

Once the bid process is complete, MassDOT will award the project so construction can be scheduled and a start date will be announced. A press release will be sent out by the town to announce the selected contractor and the proposed start date.

At this time construction is anticipated to begin in the spring of 2021.

The purpose of the Main Street Corridor Project is to improve roadway safety for vehicles, bicyclists, and pedestrians, as well as to reduce congestion throughout Hopkinton's downtown corridor. The project addresses aspects of each of the three transportation goals laid out in the Town's Master Plan adopted in April 2017.
