Public Meeting Notice  Wellfleet - Route 6 & Main Street Intersection Improvements - Combined design public hearing

A Live Virtual Design Public Hearing Meeting will be hosted on the MassDOT website below to present the design for the proposed Intersection Improvements & Related Work at Route 6 & Main Street project in Wellfleet, MA.

Purpose: 

The purpose of this hearing is to provide the public with the opportunity to become fully acquainted with the proposed Intersection Improvements & Related Work at Route 6 & Main Street project. All views and comments submitted in response to the hearing will be reviewed and considered to the maximum extent possible.

Proposal:

The proposed Route 6 and Main Street Intersection Improvements project consists of traffic signal upgrades, drainage upgrades, reducing the number of through travel lanes to one lane in both directions, the addition of a Route 6 westbound left turn lane into the pharmacy property. Additionally, MassDOT is striving to meet the goals of the Healthy Transportation Policy and upgrade the pedestrian, bicycle, and transit accommodations to the extent feasible. Sidewalks for pedestrian access, and 5-foot wide bike lanes on Route 6 and Main Street are proposed. The bike lanes on Route 6 will be separated from traffic with a 2-foot wide painted buffer.

A secure right-of-way is necessary for this project. Acquisitions in fee and permanent or temporary easements may be required. The Town of Wellfleet and Commonwealth of Massachusetts are responsible for acquiring all needed rights in private or public lands. MassDOT’s policy concerning land acquisitions will be presented in the hearing.
