Repairs to Turnpike Road should begin by the end of the month, if not sooner. Nott’s Excavating, Inc will handle the project, being selected as the winning bidder at the special Selectboard meeting on October 19. The project also includes repairs to Tigertown, Upper Turnpike, and Needham Roads which also suffered damage during the July 1 storm. If the weather cooperates, most work should be dine by mid-January. Residents will have automobile access during repairs.
Total cost of the project based on the Nott’s bid is $1,779,793. Norwich expects to receive 75% reimbursement from FEMA and 12.5% percent from the State, leaving the Town responsible for about $223,000. The town's engineering consultant, Pathways Consulting, expressed "complete confidence in [Nott’s] ability to perform at prices they proposed”, according to the CATV8 video of the meeting.
