MassDOT hosting a Public Meeting in Newburyport on the upcoming Tobin Bridge/ Chelsea Curves Rehabilitation Project

March 20, 2019 by newburyportcoogan

MassDOT will be hosting a public meeting at Newburyport City Hall Auditorium on Monday, March 25, 2019 from 6PM to 8PM on the upcoming Tobin Bridge/ Chelsea Curves Rehabilitation Project and its impact on traffic and commuting.

From MassDOT:

The purpose of this public meeting is to provide Chelsea and North Shore residents and bridge users with an opportunity to become fully acquainted with the construction phase of the Chelsea Viaduct Project, set to begin construction in spring 2019. The meeting will also provide an overview of 2019 construction on the adjoining Tobin Bridge rehabilitation and ways in which MassDOT is coordinating these two projects. The meeting will focus on the construction phasing and timeline. MassDOT will present and address specific comments from residents, community groups, and the City’s government.

In order to minimize the impacts to the 63,000 vehicles per day using Route 1 and the MBTA bus routes that cross the viaduct and bridge, MassDOT has resequenced these jobs to minimize total construction duration and limit the impacts as much as possible. This resequencing will lessen the duration of impacts to road users, improve the quality of life to those living around the structures, and minimizes the risk of project delays.

To request access or language accommodations, please contact MassDOT’s director of Civil Rights at 857-368-8580, TTD/TTY 857-368-0603, Fax 857-368-0602 or by email at MassDOT.CivilRights@dot.state.ma.us.
