CTA selected to build Hurld-Wyman Elementary School

Woburn, MA CTA Construction Managers has been awarded the contract to build the new Hurld-Wyman Elementary School. 

CTA Construction will break ground on the new 71,000 s/f elementary school, designed by DiNisco Design Partnership, later this month and expects the project to cost $25 million, $750,000 under the city’s estimated budget of $25.75 million.

“We’re very proud to be selected to build the new Hurld-Wyman School – a state-of-the-art facility for Woburn parents, students, and teachers,” said Jeff Hazelwood, a project executive at CTA Construction. “CTA Construction looks forward to bringing a great new school that will be an important part of the Woburn community for decades to come.”

The Hurld-Wyman School will be situated on the 7.5-acre Spence Farm, which will be shared by the school and the Woburn Agricultural Commission. The school will feature nearly two dozen classrooms, dedicated art and music spaces, a 6,000 s/f gymnasium, and library and cafeteria spaces. A grant from the Massachusetts School Building Authority is expected to cover 54% of all eligible costs.

CTA Construction will also handle work on athletic fields and green spaces, building a playground, and parking spaces for the school and the Agricultural Commission. The school is scheduled to open in September 2018.
