To the Businesses & Residents of the 100 & 200 blocks of West Commercial Street
Beginning on Monday, July 20, 2020 (weather permitting), the Town/Village of East Rochester has hired Villager Construction to mill and pave the 100 & 200 blocks of W. Commercial Street. This process should be completed in 3 to 4 days, while the street will remain open during the project, there will be delays and inconveniences.
This is a significant portion of our downtown business district and we believe the end results will far outweigh the short term inconvenience. At the end of the project all of the parking and crosswalk lines will be professionally painted by Accent Painting. You may notice some modification to the current design as some small safety changes will be made.
We appreciate your patience and understanding. Should you have any questions regarding this project, please call the Department of Public Works at 585-381-1565. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated during this project.
Thank you, Town/Village of East Rochester ~ Department of Public Works
