Hyannis Street Improvement Project To Alter Traffic

BARNSTABLE, MA — Work on the Ocean Street and Gosnold Street Improvements Project is scheduled for Monday.

A contractor for the Town of Barnstable is scheduled to pave a portion of Ocean Street in Hyannis from, and including, the intersection of Ocean Street and Gosnold Street to the eastern end of Hawes Avenue.

As a result, traffic will be reduced to a single lane alternating within the vicinity of construction. That construction will take place from approximately 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., weather permitting, and is expected to be completed the same day.

Throughout construction, local residential, business and emergency access will be maintained.

Traffic control will be on-site to assist motorists as needed, officials said.

This work is part of the Ocean Street and Gosnold Street Improvements Project, which aims to enhance pedestrian access and traffic safety, while also updating existing infrastructure including water main, officials said.

The project has also included the construction of a new entrance to Kalmus Beach.
