NORWAY — Residents who were expecting the sound of blasting at the construction site of a medical office building at the base of Pikes Hill can put their earplugs away.
There will be no blasting because large boulders — not ledge — were found, according to Tara McGoldrick of McGoldrick Brothers Blasting Service of Windham.
“The job has been canceled,” she said Tuesday.
Business owners and residents were prepared to hear a daily blast from the site of Western Maine Health’s $1.8 million medical building on the former C. B. Cummings & Sons Co. dowel mill site.
On Friday, McGoldrick Brothers Blasting Services said it would begin blasting a large ledge on the Orchard Street side of the construction site.
The blasting was expected to start Wednesday, April 29, and continue for three or four days, Mason Rowell of Landry/French Construction of Scarborough, general contractor, said last week.
