 Project Advisory: Route 79/Davol Street Corridor Improvements

Brownell Street to be Reduced to Single Lane Traffic starting December 9

What Is Happening?

To accommodate ongoing utility installation, Brownell Street will be reduced to one lane of traffic 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, for approximately 4 weeks beginning Saturday December 9. A police detail will be onsite to facilitate two-way alternating traffic on Brownell Street.

How Will this Affect You?

Vehicles will be directed by an onsite police detail to alternate two-way traffic where Brownell Street is reduced to one lane. We respectfully request pedestrians utilize the detour signage and cross Brownell Street at the designated temporary crosswalk. Signs will be posted 48 hours in advance.

Start Date: December 9, 2023

Time: 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, for approximately 4 weeks

Weather and unexpected circumstances make all construction activities subject to change, but we will do our best to keep you updated.

Travel Tips

During this construction phase, Brownell Street and Davol Street will remain open to vehicular traffic. Please take care to pay attention to all signage as it is posted.

About the Project

Davol Street and Route 79 run along the Taunton Riverfront in Fall River. Currently, access between the neighborhoods and the waterfront is limited and the corridor lacks bicycle accommodations. MassDOT is redesigning the mile-long corridor to improve mobility, connectivity, and safety along and across Route 79 and Davol Street. The corridor will be transformed into a multi-modal urban boulevard, connecting the neighborhoods to the Taunton River while promoting economic growth by creating new development parcels to contribute to economic development.
