Proposed Work Schedule, Week of 9/10/18, 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.

Paving operations are scheduled to continue for the rest of this week including Saturday and possibly Monday 9/10 from Last Road to the Goodrich property.

  
Following paving operations, crews will work on backing up the shoulders, removing and resetting some barriers, and line striping. It is anticipated that traffic will be switched to the new portion of the road early next week, possibly Monday or Tuesday.  

Following the switch over of traffic to the newly paved portion of the road, crews will begin the road cut from Goodrich property working back toward the Folsom Farm. Underdrain installation will take place along with this work. 

A small crew will be preparing for removal of the temporary bridge near Houghton road.

A guardrail crew is tentatively scheduled to work in both bridge locations. 

Crews will continue road work at the intersection of Last Road and Route 2. Work at this location includes excavating the roadway and replacing with new roadway material. The Last Road intersection will be temporarily shifted during this portion of construction.

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.

TRAFFIC INFORMATION: 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. 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.
