the appropriate protective shielding for the railway tracks.

All of the work scheduled for this weekend is expected to be completed by 6:00 PM on Sunday. 

MassDOT and the contractor have coordinated this effort with the MBTA and the City of 
Somerville in order to minimize the extent and duration of certain night time work operations 
that have the potential to create significant inconvenience and impacts to the neighboring public.

construction operations associated with the project.  The meeting will be held on Monday,
