Throughout construction, access to businesses and residences will be maintained with traffic control on-site to assist motorists. Depending on the location and timing of active work, motorists may need to seek alternate routes. As always, please slow down and use caution when traveling through road construction areas and follow posted safety and detour signs.

As construction progresses, work zones and traffic patterns will change. Additional work zones are anticipated later this fall and will be communicated as schedules are finalized. Updates will be shared in the Town’s weekly Barnstable eNews, on the Town’s Facebook and Instagram, and through the MyBarnstable mobile app, available on the App Store or Google Play Store. Real-time construction-related road closures are updated and shared through the Waze App and Google Maps.

If you have any questions or wish to receive project updates, please contact Kelly Collopy, Communications Manager, at the Department of Public Works at 508-790-6400 or Kelly.Collopy@barnstable.gov.
