Restoration of Salem's Town Pump Fountain Set to Begin
Work on the downtown Salem fountain is expected to last through the month of June.
Work to restore the Town Pump Fountain at the corner of the Essex Street Pedestrian Mall and Washington Street will get underway soon, according to an announcement issued Tuesday.
The city’s contractor, R. Bates and Sons, intends to work Monday through Friday between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.
The target date of completion for this project is June 30.
The Pedestrian Mall will be kept open for pedestrian access and deliveries throughout the period of construction; however, there may be periods of time when vehicular access for deliveries will be restricted at the Essex and Washington Streets Intersection.
Information on the project can be found here.
