First Day of Summer to Bring Milling and Grinding to Stephanie Drive
Gardner Paving Plan in Motion: As more paving gets underway in the City of Gardner, Stephanie Drive (off West Broadway) is scheduled for milling and grinding on Friday, June 20, 2025, the first day of summer. As a mile of paved road now costs about a million dollars, funding Gardner receives from the State of MA covers less than a mile of pavement and Gardner has 100 miles of roads. There are some funds in the City budget and Gardner Mayor Nicholson has asked the City Council to allocate a higher percentage of FREE CASH to paving than was done prior to Nicholson taking office.
From the City of Gardner: “On Friday, June 20th Stephanie Drive is scheduled for milling/grinding in preparation for paving. Expect temporary detours and road closures.” Gardner Magazine will alert you to more paving announcements as they occur.
