Shawsheen Avenue Paving to Begin Wednesday

From the Wilmington Police Department

On Wednesday, August 24, the Department Public Works will begin paving Shawsheen Avenue (Rte. 129). During paving operations only eastbound traffic will be allowed on Shawsheen Ave. between Aldrich Road and the Shawsheen School. Westbound traffic will be detoured onto Aldrich Rd.

Until the intersection of Shawsheen/Hopkins/Lake is paved, there will be no westbound access towards Billerica. Motorists traveling towards Billerica will need to stay on Cook St all the way to Route 3A. Lake Street will also be closed at Shawsheen Ave until the intersection is paved.

Area residents will have access to and from their properties at all times, although there may be short delays. Please obey the directives of police details, detour signs, and warning signs during all construction operations.
