Traffic and Sidewalk Impacts
During this work, you can expect temporary lane shifts and possibly lane closures, but one travel lane in each direction will remain on Mount Auburn Street. Work will take place on the sidewalks, but they will remain open and accessible. Business entrances will be maintained as well. Work in these areas will begin at 7am.
Parking Impacts
Street parking in the construction area on Mount Auburn Street during this phase will be restricted. Construction crews will post parking closure signs in those areas starting at 7am and will be removing them from the area by 5pm each day.
School Lane is Closed on Tuesday, April 22, 2025 for the Installation of a Utility Pole
Traffic Impacts
School Lane will be closed on Tuesday, April 22, 2025, while the installation of a utility pole is being completed. Installation work is not anticipated to last all day, with work beginning in the morning between 7-8am, and expected to continue into the early-to-mid afternoon. Due to the narrowness of School Ln, there will be no access on the roadway while work is ongoing.
Parking Impacts
Street parking in the direct construction area will be restricted. Please keep an eye out for parking closure signs.
