Veteran’s Memorial Park Sidewalk Construction Begins March 24
Pedestrian Detours in Place During Construction
 
 MANCHESTER, NH – The City of Manchester’s Department of Public Works (DPW) announced today that construction of sidewalk improvements along Elm Street, from Central Street to Merrimack Street, adjacent to Veteran’s Memorial Park, will begin on March 24, 2025. The project will require partial sidewalk closures, with pedestrian detours in place throughout the construction period.

To minimize disruptions, the work will be completed in phases, ensuring continued access to Manchester Transit Authority (MTA) bus service.

This project is a collaborative effort between various City Departments, aimed at enhancing the user experience of Veteran’s Memorial Park and the surrounding areas. Improvements include ADA-compliant upgrades to the sidewalk and ramps, as well as new landscaping, contributing to a safer, more welcoming environment.

The project has been awarded to GMI Asphalt of Belmont, NH, with completion expected in July 2025.

The DPW appreciates the community’s patience and understanding as the department works to improve Manchester’s infrastructure.
