    Update 6/20/2024

    Over the next week there is work being done on Sanger St. You should still be able to park in the Pilgrim Church lot, but we'd suggest that you park in the Town Hall / Police Station lot over the next week. Washington Street is blocked and detoured down South Main Street to Sawin Street, but it is ok to slowly go around the barricade to access Town Hall off 16 from the Holliston direction. 

    Wondering how to get to the Library during road construction?

    -- If you are coming down Rt. 16 from Holliston, go around the barrier at Sawin St. - you can still access the Town Hall / Library Parking Lot.

    -- If you are at the bottom of Sanger St. / Rt. 27, go around barrier to park in the Pilgrim Church Parking Lot or in the two lots along Sanger St.

    Please be aware; re-construction of the Washington Street-Maple Street intersection (Roundabout) will begin on or about May 13th. The first phase of the project will have little to no effect on traffic flow as the work will be limited to areas off the road (the lawn in front of the Library and Town Hall, and the roadway shoulder in front of 12 Washington street).

    On or about June 17th, the intersection will be closed to traffic.  Washington Street will be blocked and detoured down South Main Street to Sawin Street. Sanger Street will be blocked and only used for library, Church and Community Center access.  Maple Street will be blocked with only local access allowed.

    The intersection construction is expected to be substantially complete and re-opened to traffic by mid-August, prior to the first day of school.
