The City of Norwood Public Works Dept., like most small municipal departments across the country, does not have the capability to mill, rebase and repave a street. This street is not on the list for Capital Improvement for 2022, however it is one of three streets we will be submitting in September for funding in the next funding cycle for 2023-24. We hope to receive enough in grants/loans to do a complete reconstruction much like Regent Ave. which was just completed. In the meantime, the only option I have is to patch it. We can come through with the asphalt trailer and patch as best we can. It will be neither pretty nor perfect, but it will be much better than what is there now. It may not be until late next week at the earliest, due to the Norwood Day parade preparations next week.
There are no shortage of streets that need repaving in Norwood. Since Jan, 2020, the current administration has been working very hard to secure funding avenues and address as many streets as we can, but quite frankly, we can't undo decades of neglect in a couple years. Please bear with us as we work to address these issues moving forward.
