The Commission on Disability at its meeting Thursday night discussed a public awareness campaign with Hopkinton’s top cops that would share helpful information regarding people with disabilities with first responders.

Members of the Hopkinton Historical Commission celebrated the end of a 12-year restoration and conservation project at Aikens Park and Trail with a ribbon cutting on Thursday.

The town’s water and sewer superintendent announced Friday that a required fire hydrant flow test will take place late Monday night that would affect Main Street and cause potential water discoloration in town.

The town’s latest Main Street Corridor Project update released Friday noted that conduit installation will begin on Main Street during the upcoming week, which will necessitate closing the entrance driveway to Town Hall during that time.

The Massachusetts Department of Transportation announced that overnight ramp closures at the interchange of Interstate 495 southbound and the MassPike will begin Monday.

The Hopkinton Fire Department responded to a crash involving 10 vehicles on Interstate 495 north near the MassPike interchange Saturday afternoon.
