Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) is beginning a road improvement project on Depot Street (Route 123), between Newell Circle and Washington Street (Route 138). This project will include roadway reconstruction and widening, construction of
sidewalks, and the modification of the Center Street intersection with new traffic signals. The project also includes drainage upgrades, a new water main, and new pavement markings and signs. A minimum of one lane of traffic will be maintained on Route 123
at all times during work hours. Traffic management will consist of standard temporary traffic control operations utilizing advanced warning signs and police details. Town-approved detours will also be utilized when work does not permit directional traffic
or the safe passage of vehicles. Drivers who are traveling through the affected areas should expect delays, reduce speed, and use caution. The work will occur weekly, Monday through Friday, during daytime hours from 7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Please visit
