WESTBOROUGH – Work has begun at what will soon be a Big Y supermarket at 290 Turnpike Road.
Eric Butler, the project superintendent for C.E. Floyd Construction, the general contractor for Big Y, said the work currently being done includes the underground installation of electrical, plumbing and refrigeration.
According to town records, the property owner, RK Westboro LLC, recently pulled permit applications for electrical work (including new panels, fire alarms and lighting) and sheet metal installation (duct work).
Butler said the work should be completed this summer.
In January 2024, Big Y announced it was coming to the site that once housed a Stop & Shop supermarket. The supermarket chain applied for building permits in September.
The interior fit-out will include walk-in coolers, shelving, fixtures and finishes.
The interior totals 41,448 square feet.
