Detours Set As Projects On Phinney's Lane Continue In Barnstable

BARNSTABLE, MA — Work on Phinney's Lane continues this week in Barnstable, which has resulted in roadway alterations for two sections of the street, officials said.

From Oct. 17 to Oct. 21, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., a section of the Phinney’s Lane and Route 132 and Iyannough Road intersection will be closed to "facilitate necessary Vineyard Wind duct bank work within the intersection," Barnstable officials said.

The figure below indicates the expected detour plan provided to the town by Vineyard Wind. Businesses will remain open and accessible during construction thanks to the detours.

In addition, Phinney’s Lane from Old Strawberry Hill Road to Strawberry Hill Road will remain closed to through traffic during the same timeframe, officials said.

"The closures are necessary due to work associated with the Town’s sewer installation and associated water main relocation," they added.

Formal road closure and posted detours will be in place. All closed roadways will remain accessible to residents and businesses throughout construction.

"As always, please slow down and use extreme caution when traveling through the road construction areas, and follow posted safety and detour signs," officials said.
