Twenty-four hour pour taking place at middle school project

Concrete pour will continue until Thursday morning

Posted

The contractor building the new Barrington Middle School is conducting a 24-hour concrete pour at the work site — the pour started at 6 a.m. on Wednesday, May 30.

Residents who live near the middle school should expect to hear some construction noise during the overnight hours. Barrington Town Manager Jim Cunha said officials are expecting a steady flow of construction vehicles to visit the work site during the 24-hour event. 

According to the BMS Project blog, workers are installing a concrete slab that will contain approximately 350 yards of concrete. A police detail officer will be posted at the construction entrance for all concrete deliveries and temporary light towers will be installed to allow for the overnight work. 

The Barrington Middle School construction project started in February and is scheduled to be completed in Aug. 2019. Taxpayers approved a $68.4 million bond to pay for the project.
