Proposed Work Schedule, Week of 7/2/18, Cabot-Danville US 2 Reconstruction [Cabot-Danville FEGC F 028-3(36) C/2]

Project Location:  The 1.4 mile project extends along US 2 from Last Road to Danville Hill Road in Cabot. This is a multi-year project with most of the work occurring in 2017/2018. Completion is scheduled for 2019.

Work to be performed includes reconstruction, realignment and widening of a portion of US Route 2 including bridge replacement, grading, drainage, sub-base, pavement and other highway related items.

Traffic pattern change and speed reduction to 35 mph from Last Road to Folsom Farm is in effect. Traffic will be using the temporary bridge that was previously installed.

Holiday Schedule: Work will cease at noon on Tuesday, July 3rd in observance of Independence Day. Crews will resume work on Thursday, July 5th at 7:00 AM.

Excavation of the existing roadway and placement of select roadway materials will continue from the Folsom Farm and progress west toward Last Rd.

Crews will continue to clean up stockpiles and install fill and select roadway materials up to the new bridge east of Folsom Farm.

Bridge work will continue throughout next week at Bridge 87 between Last Rd. and Houghton Rd. Crews are currently driving piles for the new bridge.

Ditch grading and top soiling is nearly completed from the Goodrich property to Danville Hill Road. Some driveway repair has been completed and will continue throughout the week of 7/2. 

TRAVEL ALERT: Motorists are advised that a traffic pattern change will be in effect at the temporary bridge, and the existing bridge will be closed. A speed limit reduction to 35 mph will be in effect at the location of the temporary bridge. The remainder of the project remains at the 40 mph speed reduction. There are increased fines for speed violations within the construction zone.

Construction vehicles will be entering and exiting the work zone throughout construction hours, and as a result, alternating one-way traffic patterns with flaggers will be in place. Brief delays can be expected.

Please focus on safety when driving through the construction work zone and remember, it is against the law to use a hand held cell phone while driving in Vermont.
