I-95 Weekend Construction Alert

A MassDOT traffic advisory for anyone traveling I-95 southbound this weekend.

Beginning at 7 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 3 and continuing through 12 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 4, there will be multiple lane closures on the section of I-95/Route 128 South in the vicinity of East Street (Exit 14) in Westwood to allow work crews to complete roadway reconstruction and paving operations.     

Appropriate signs, channelizing devices and traffic control measures will be used to guide drivers through the work zone. MassDOT encourages drivers to seek alternate routes, to avoid delays. Drivers that must travel through the affected area should expect delays, particularly during the period on Sunday, Nov. 4 between 6 a.m. and 12 p.m. Drivers should reduce speed and use caution while approaching and traveling near or through the work zone and along any associated detour routes.  

The work is part of a $53.7 million project to widen a 5.5 mile section of Route I-93/Route I-95/ Route 128 between Randolph and Westwood to provide an additional travel lane in each direction.
