In August of 2022, the City of Sanford, and the Maine Department of Transportation (MaineDOT) received a Federal RAISE Grant for infrastructure improvement projects in the Downtown area.
MaineDOT invites and encourages the public to participate in a public hearing for the Machias Dike Bridge (#2246).

More subsurface geotechnical work (driven H Piles) were completed at Abutment #2. Lightweight Fill has begun at Abutment #2 and the lower half of Ramp B was built up to its new grade.

I would like to see more J1772 charging stations on Route 1 north of Portland and heading to Acadia. Bath has none! and those further along are private, associated with inns, more difficult to find and inconvenient if you're not staying. Also many more in central and western Maine. At the moment, I can't conveniently drive from Portland to Baxter State Park in my (83-mile av. range) e-Golf. |
