Tewksbury Road To Be Closed, Detours In Place For Resurfacing

TEWKSBURY, MA — The town is warning drivers about a road closure that began this week.

The town posted the following statement:

Starting on Wednesday, April 23, 2025 a roadway closure and detour will be implemented on Fiske Street as part of the Town’s Roadway Resurfacing Project. Fiske Street is to be closed between Andover Street and Bailey Road and will be detoured during construction hours only (typically 7:00AM to 3:30PM) on Monday to Friday. Traffic will be detoured in both directions utilizing Trull Road as a detour route. Residents that live within the closed portion of Fiske Street will be able to bypass the roadway closure to get to and from their residences. Depending on where the construction work zone is located each day, residents will need to access their houses from either the Andover Street or Bailey Road end of the work zone. This construction work is planned to start at the Andover Street intersection and will progress north towards Bailey Road. Traffic Control Officers will be on-site to direct traffic and detour signs will be posted along the detour route and at side streets within the roadway closure area. This roadway closure and detour is anticipated to last approximately four to six weeks.

School Buses will not be impacted by these detours and will be allowed to bypass the detour routes in order to pickup and drop-off students at their normal times and locations. Trash collection and mail/package delivery vehicles will also be allowed to bypass the roadway closure to access residences.
