THE RTE 115 PROJECT IS SCHEDULED TO BEGIN:
Route 115 Transportation Improvement Project:
Norfolk, Wrentham & Foxboro
Pond Street/Pine Street/Turner Road
This long awaited reconstruction project has begun. The contractor has mobilized his equipment during the month of March, and the project should commence in April 2010. The project scope of work includes widening Route 115 to include sidewalks, bike lanes and installing a new traffic light at the intersection of Rte 115 and Rte 1A.
Project duration: April 2010 through October 2011
Residents will be able to access their property
Traffic delays are to be expected during the construction period
It may be necessary to reduce traffic to one lane at times
The bridge abutment is scheduled to be demolished in May 2010 and will require detours (long detour for large trucks and a short detour for cars)
We appreciate your patience during this project and we are available to assist you should you have additional questions. Please do not hesitate to contact the Norfolk Department of Public Works Office at 508-528-4990.
