Dear partners,
It is with a heavy heart that NYU Dentistry and Washington County Children’s Program have decided to postpone the Machias dental outreach program that was scheduled for April 26 – May 2, 2020. We feel it is our duty to keep community members, patients, and dental staff safe and healthy during this very challenging and uncertain time. As you may know, the coronavirus pandemic has led to widespread restrictions on travel, and health authorities advise against group gatherings in order to protect community members who are most at risk for contracting the virus. We take these warnings very seriously and will do our part to limit the spread of COVID-19.
We will reschedule the community dental program once the public health situation is more clearly understood and it is deemed safe. While we hope to find the earliest possible time to return, it is likely to be several months from now. In the meantime, we encourage anyone experiencing dental pain or infection to find a local dental provider as soon as possible.
Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding as we try to keep our community, and the communities we serve, safe and healthy in this unprecedented situation.
For now, please follow the CDC’s guidelines for handwashing, social distancing, and other preventive practices that will help curb the spread of the virus.
Regards,
Rachel M. Laureyns, MPH

Subject:Upcoming Machias Bridge Work
Hello Christina,
I am a Project Manager with MaineDOT’s Bridge Program. I believe that I previously spoke to you and sent a letter in 2018 describing a project to replace the wearing surfaces on the Machias East, Center, & West Covered Bridges on Rt. 1 over the Machias River.
This project was under construction in 2019, however we ran into some unexpected issues that needed resolution and were not able to be dealt with in 2019 due to scheduling and weather restriction. We put together a plan to return to Machias to repair the issues, repave the bridges and fully complete the project in May 2020. We have strict traffic control requirements to meet and have a brief window of time in May had been identified as being available for us to perform work both during the day and night to get this project done. One lane of traffic and a sidewalk will be open on the bridges at all times and there will be flaggers to maintain traffic flow.
This email is to notify you and the Town of Machias that MaineDOT and it’s Contractor, Gordon Contracting, will be beginning work in early May to repair these bridges. They will be putting notification in the paper about the width restrictions on the bridge and will have message boards and signs going up at the end of this week or the beginning of next week. I assume traffic in Machias on Route 1 is lower than previously expected, however, we had planned on heavy traffic and will be signing an alternate route to avoid the bridges (utilizing Route 1A). This work is short duration and it is expected to be worked on 24 hours a day being completed by May 30th.
We apologize for the inconvenience in returning to this project once again, but we hope that this will cause minimal inconveniences for the residents and users of these bridges.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions/concerns.
Thank you.
Jason Stetson, P.E.
