Despite small staff, late start, town closing in on Chapter 90 completion

TEMPLETON - Highway Superintendent Bud Chase and his team has been working hard through September and into October to ensure the town’s road construction plans using Chapter 90 road repair funds are completed before autumn gives way to the winter months.

“It’s coming along lovely,” Mr. Chase said of the work his crew has completed so far, which includes repairs made to Route 101, supplemented by the state’s Pothole and Winter Recovery Program.

While the neighboring city of Gardner began its paving program in July, Mr. Chase said layoffs enacted earlier in the summer, along with an already-small staff and busy contractors led to this year’s delay.

“We got a real late start on this construction season,” Mr. Chase commented.

Despite the odds, Mr. Chase said his department has finished nine of the 11 targeted streets presented to the Board of Selectmen in April, along with constructing the parking lot and handicapped ramp behind Town Hall.

“We’ve done a lot of work this summer,” said Mr. Chase.
