Severe weather conditions this winter have created extensive damage, including vast numbers of potholes, on DCR roads, parkways, and bridges. On the Bowker, many potholes are deep enough to expose the underlying steel reinforcements and have reached a level where temporary patching will not suffice. “Ensuring public safety is paramount at DCR, and it is important that we make these repairs immediately to honor that commitment,” said DCR Commissioner Richard K. Sullivan Jr. “We appreciate the concerns of neighbors and commuters, and will do everything possible to minimize the noise and traffic disruption during this work. However, we need to address this issue immediately.” To expedite the repairs, DCR has directed its contractor, SPS of Waltham, to work seven days a week, starting Wednesday, February 4. The right-hand southbound (inbound) lane will be closed on the following days and times: Monday-Thursday, 7 p.m.-5 a.m. (each night) 7 p.m.Friday through5 a.m. Monday Significant jackhammering noise will be associated with the work, but jackhammering will be limited to the following hours: Monday-Friday, 7 p.m.-10 p.m.(each night) Saturday, 9 a.m.-9 p.m. Sunday, noon-6 p.m. Weather permitting, the repairs are expected to be completed in about six weeks.
