HYANNIS – Motorists traveling along Yarmouth Road in Hyannis should expect temporary overnight lane closures and possible traffic delays beginning Monday, November 16, as the Town of Barnstable conducts preliminary work associated with a sewer expansion project.
According to the Barnstable Department of Public Works, a contractor working for the town will conduct in-road data collection, including soil borings, along Yarmouth Road between Old Yarmouth Road and Rosary Lane.
The work is scheduled to take place nightly from 7 p.m. to 3 a.m. and is expected to continue for approximately one week.
During construction hours, temporary lane closures will be in effect, with alternating single-lane traffic maintained through the work zone.
Traffic control personnel will be stationed along the roadway to direct vehicles and assist motorists traveling through the construction area.
The work is part of the Old Yarmouth Road Sewer Expansion Project, which is included in Barnstable’s ongoing efforts to expand wastewater infrastructure and improve water quality.
Town officials are advising motorists to follow posted signs and instructions from traffic control personnel, use caution when traveling through the construction zone and allow additional travel time.
Residents and motorists seeking additional information or project updates can contact Barnstable Department of Public Works Communications Manager Kelly Collopy at 508-790-6400 or [email protected].
The overnight work is expected to be completed within one week.
