SAUGUS – The Town of Saugus is notifying residents of upcoming overnight sewer work on Route 1.
National Water Main will be completing overnight work during the next few weeks on a portion of Route 1 extending from Main Street to the Square One Mall. This work will include the cleaning and lining of sewer lines in sewer subsystem 3A, in addition to manhole work.
Work has been scheduled overnight to minimize the traffic impact of the work that remains to rehabilitate the sewer subsystem.
The overnight sewer work will take place from 8 p.m. to 5 a.m. on the designated work days, which are:
- Monday, July 14, 2025
- Tuesday, July 15, 2025
- Wednesday, July 16, 2025
- Thursday, July 17, 2025
- The week of Sunday, July 20, 2025
Police details will be used for each shift per the requirements of the Massachusetts Department of Transportation.
This sewer rehabilitation project aims to eliminate sources of water leaking into the sewer system that strain its capacity, can cause sanitary sewer overflows, and increase the town’s costs for transportation and treatment of these flows. The project will also improve the structural integrity of these areas.
The town thanks you in advance for your patience and cooperation during this project that will result in better quality and more reliable sewer infrastructure for the community.
If you have any questions about the overnight sewer work or the sewer subsystem 3A project, please contact Town Engineer Kevin Hallion at 781-231-4032.
