Next week you can expect to see construction activity at two main work sites on Newport Avenue (between W. Squantum Street and Wilson Avenue and between Douse Road and Furnace Brook Parkway). Please note that short-term test pit excavation will continue next week at various points along Furnace Brook Parkway (between Newport Avenue and Southern Artery) as crews prepare for duct bank installation later this month.

Construction hours at both work sites are 7:00am to 4:30pm, Monday through Friday.

As always, we ask that drivers and pedestrians remain mindful of lane shifts, posted traffic signage, and the direction of police details stationed around these work zones.

Please know that construction is scheduled to minimize the impact on traffic and everyday life; sections of your street will likely only be impacted by the construction for weeks—not years. That said, we understand that construction doesn’t always feel “short-term” when it’s in front of your home or business. As work begins in your area, we will continue to work to mitigate inconveniences that come up to the greatest extent feasible. Please let us know about upcoming deliveries, schedules, and events that could be impacted by work.

*Please note, due to the complexities of outdoor construction, schedule is subject to change.
