NOTICE OF A PUBLIC HEARING MEETING
Project File No. 609098
A Live Virtual Design Public Hearing will be hosted on the MassDOT website below to present the design for the proposed Pavement Preservation and Related Work project in Wellfleet, MA.
WHEN: 6:30 PM, Wednesday, September 22, 2021
PURPOSE: The purpose of this hearing is to provide the public with the opportunity to become fully acquainted with the proposed Pavement Preservation and Related Work on Route 6 project. All views and comments submitted in response to the hearing will be reviewed and considered to the maximum extent possible.
PROPOSAL: The proposed project consists of pavement preservation along the Route 6 corridor to address deteriorating pavement conditions. The project will consist of pavement resurfacing (mill and overlay) and restriping. Guardrail and catch basins will also be upgraded to meet the latest design guidance. Additionally, MassDOT is striving to meet the goals of the Healthy Transportation Policy and upgrade the pedestrian, bicycle, and transit accommodations to the extent feasible. The majority of the corridor is proposed to include buffered bicycle lanes, with small sections of five-foot wide painted bike lanes; installation of sidewalks at the Wellfleet Cinema, Marconi Beach Road, LeCount Hollow Road, Cove Road, Main Street, and School Street; and upgrades to bus stops.
A secure right-of-way is necessary for this project. Acquisitions in fee and permanent or temporary easements may be required. The Commonwealth of Massachusetts is responsible for acquiring all needed rights in private or public lands. MassDOT’s policy concerning land acquisitions will be presented in the hearing.
