Work to begin at O'Brien Tech fields in Ansonia

ANSONIA - Work is scheduled to begin Tuesday to refurbish the Ford Street Emmett O’Brien Technical High School athletic fields.  
Fusco and Mather Construction Co. will be operating heavy equipment for excavations and has informed the city that there will be no access to the fields for safety concerns during the duration of their repairs.  
They have further informed the city they plan to close off access beginning at the parking lot on Ford Street.  

The work they plan to complete during the construction phase is below:
1. The track surface will be torn up and replaced 
2. The irrigation system for the football field will be replaced and additional drainage will be installed
3.  The sidewalks throughout the complex and tennis courts will be replaced
4. The existing storm water basin near the tennis courts will be enlarged to meet present day storm water management requirements
5. There will also be some minor improvements to the baseball and softball fields


“We understand this is going to be an inconvenience to the residents who utilize the track for walking, however the end result will be worth the wait,”  Mayor David S. Cassetti said.


This is a press release from the mayor's office.
