Notice Regarding Yellow Center Line Painting on July 6th

Due to a problem with the “quick-dry” paint materials used to recoat the yellow center lines on certain roadways in the southeast part of town, the paint failed to dry within the specified period of time.   This condition caused the paint to run and paint splatter to occur as cars drove near or across the yellow center lines.  Cleary, the current condition of these center lines in not acceptable and the Town’s Line Painting Contractor is aware of the problem and will be scheduling repair work to rectify this problem without any additional cost to the Town.

In the meantime, if your vehicle has evidence of yellow paint splatter from driving through this area, please contact the North Reading DPW at (978) 357-5260 if you wish to register your vehicle with us for the purposes of scheduling a time to have your vehicle cleaned of yellow paint splatter.
