- Thursday, February 5, through Tuesday, June 30, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, Brownsville Road will be closed and detoured weekdays between Playwicki Street and Broadview Avenue. During the closure, drivers will be directed to use Old Lincoln Highway, Route 213 (Maple Avenue/Bridgetown Pike), and Bristol Road.
Local access will be maintained at all times. Drivers are advised to allow extra time when traveling near the work area or along the detour route because backups and delays may occur.
