These temporary traffic impacts are necessary to allow the City of Revere Department of Public Works (DPW) construction crews to perform utility work along North Shore Road. This work is part of a state highway access permit project.
Signs, traffic control devices and law enforcement details will be used to guide drivers through or around the work zones.
MassDOT encourages drivers to reduce speed and use caution while approaching and traveling through or around the work zones.
All work is weather dependent and is subject to change without notice.
