Dennis: Route 6A Closure and Detour

The Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) has announced that it will be closing Route 6A (Main Street) from Scargo Hill Road to Sesuit Neck Road beginning on September 4th. Road closures are expected to be in place through April 2025.

The roadway closure and detour is necessary to facilitate the replacement of two existing culverts under Route 6A at Sesuit Creek. The roadway will remain open to residents within the closed section of Route 6A.

Traffic management will consist of a temporary detour as follows: Traffic travelling eastbound on Route 6A eastbound will turn left onto Sesuit Neck Road, turn right on Bridge Street, and continue on Bridge Street to Route 6A. Traffic travelling westbound on Route 6A will turn left onto Scargo Hill Road, continue straight onto Old Bass River Road, and continue on Old Bass River Road to Route 6A.

Drivers traveling through the affected areas should expect delays, reduce speed, and use caution.
Appropriate signage, law enforcement details, and advanced message boards will be in place to guide drivers through the work area.
All scheduled work is weather dependent and/or may be impacted due to an emergency situation.
