Media Advisory: North Andover Closures on Route 125/133, Chickering Road and Massachusetts Avenue

Paving operations nightly on Wednesday, November 4 through Friday, November 6 from 7 p.m. to 5 a.m. 

The Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) is announcing temporary overnight lane restrictions and the intermittent use of alternating one-way traffic flow, at the intersection of Route 125/133, Chickering Avenue and Massachusetts Avenue in North Andover. These temporary traffic impacts will occur from 7:00 p.m. through 5:00 a.m. each night, beginning on Wednesday, November 4, through Friday, November 6. The impacts are necessary to allow construction crews to install the final wearing pavement surface on Route 125/133 between Baystate Road and Farrwood Avenue and on Massachusetts Avenue between Adams Avenue and Cobblestone Road.

Signs, traffic control devices, detours, 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 and to allow for extra time through this area.

Work is weather dependent and subject to change without notice.

This work is part of a $4.1 million project to reconstruct the intersection of Route 125/133 (Chickering Road) and Massachusetts Avenue.
