Malden Road Reconstruction Schedule Update

malden cahill drain

The Town has updated the Malden Road re-construction schedule to be completed fully in 2027. The new schedule will ensure there is ample time for property acquisition and utility work, which is ongoing, and thus Malden Road will not be fully closed in 2026 as was previously announced and will be closed starting in early 2027. The full road closures along Malden Road will take place in stages to try and eliminate disruptions to residents, businesses, and commuters as much as possible.

Cahill Drain Bridge and Road Widening Work in 2026

The tendering process has begun to complete bridge work and road widening on Malden Road at the Cahill Drain (south of Normandy Road). This will also include installing the storm sewer drain outlet and watermain reconstruction in this area. This work should take roughly three months to complete, which will likely take place in the summer to fall months of 2026. During that time there will be some detours to try and alleviate traffic concerns, as well as possible one-lane flagging during critical points in the construction.

Town administration will work with the contractor to limit interruptions as much as possible during the construction on Malden Road. More information will be provided when contracts are approved and throughout the construction. Thank you for your patience.
