About DP Mercurio & Sons Construction and Septic

Where Route 12 and Route 140 meet, West Boylston stacks itself along the road and then falls away toward Oakdale and the water. DP Mercurio & Sons Construction and Septic turn out for snow here, plowing driveways and lots while the storm is still coming down hard at two in the morning. There is a craft to a plow route — knowing which apron the town truck will bury, which turnaround needs a wide swing, where meltwater will freeze by four o'clock. Walks are cleared down to bare surface, and salt or sand goes on the grades that ice over first. By breakfast the cars are moving and the driveways look like somebody was watching out for the place.
