Lower Main Street Utility Upgrades: Bar Harbor

Ranger replaced aging water and sewer mains beneath Lower Main Street while rebuilding sidewalks above to support safer pedestrian traffic. All work was performed in a dense downtown corridor, requiring careful staging, traffic control, and phased delivery to keep Bar Harbor’s businesses and walkways open and functional throughout construction.

With heavy pedestrian traffic and local businesses relying on street access, this job demanded tight coordination and minimal disruption. Ranger carefully phased the work and maintained active communication with business owners to keep the community moving.

For downtown utility work, it’s not just about what you build — it’s how you build it. Ranger worked hand-in-hand with the Town of Bar Harbor to maintain access, minimize impact on tourism and commerce, and deliver upgrades without dragging out the timeline. We’re known for staying ahead of schedule and delivering consistent results — even in high-stakes, high-traffic zones.
