The Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) is replacing bridges on I-90 east and westbound over Flanders Road in Westborough and Parkerville Road, Cordaville Road and Woodland Road in Southborough. To minimize disruptions, MassDOT will use a rapid bridge replacement approach to replace eight bridges over eight weekends. This approach reduces the project duration from a potential of three years with traditional construction methods to just over one year. In advance of the eight weekends, preparatory work is being performed on I-90 and on the local streets. The existing abutments are being refaced at Woodland, Parkerville and Flanders Roads. New abutments are being constructed at Cordaville Road.
This public meeting will provide information about the replacement of the eight bridges (two bridges per local road) that will take place over eight weekends between June 2021 and August 2021 as well as an update on ongoing preparatory work that began in February 2021.
The meeting will be held online, via Zoom. To register, please click this link:
