WEATHER PERMITTING
Beginning July 6, 2009 (weather permitting), traffic on Willard Road at Route 28 will be switched to partial use of the new interchange bridge and Ramps. Expect lane closures and flagging operations in all directions during the switch. In the event of inclement weather, the switch will be rescheduled.
The partial opening will require temporary detours for Northbound Route 28 traffic destined for Willard Road and for Willard Road traffic destined for Southbound Route 28. These detours will utilize the Westfields Boulevard / Route 28 Interchange and parallel roads to Route 28; Stonecroft Boulevard and Lee Road on the west side of Route 28 or Westfields Boulevard and Walney Road on the East side, as shown on the attached detour map. These traffic detours will be in place for approximately 3 weeks, weather permitting, until the final ramps and connections can be completed.

On behalf of the Project Team, we appreciate your cooperation during construction and look forward to a major improvement in traffic congestion and public safety once the project is complete. |
