Town Manager’s Update
July 16, 2015

 

Announcements
 

  • The next Household Hazardous Waste collection will be held on Saturday, August 1, at the Nashua Public Works garage at 9 Stadium Drive from 8am to noon.  For a list of acceptable materials please check out the Solid Waste Division site on the Town web.  There is a fee of $10 which covers 10 gallons or 20 pounds of material

 

Town Manager’s Report
 

  • The Governor and Council has approved the Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP) grant which will be used towards the construction of approximately 2500 linear feet of non-motorized multi use path that will connect Watson Park to the pedestrian crossing of the Souhegan River that was installed adjacent to the FEE Turnpike Merrill’s Marauders Bridge.  The new path will connect the town center area to residential and recreational areas including Wildcat Falls Conservation Area and Merrimack High School.  We have begun the consultant selection process and are ready to move as fast as DOT will allow.
     
  • The Manchester Street Bridge over Pennichuck ponds is now open for traffic. 
     
  • Town wide paving is progressing.  For the latest updates check out the Town website or the DPW Facebook site.   
     
  • The new waterfront parking area at Wasserman Park is now open. This parking is available only to Merrimack residents and requires proof of residency - either a current Town of Merrimack Transfer Station Sticker or one of the Rear View Mirror Hangtags valid for 2015.  This new parking area features 20 parking spaces that are located at the bottom of the hill (on the site of the former Camp Dining Hall), which will make it convenient for residents to access the Town Beach and eliminate the long climb uphill after enjoying a day at the lake.
