Engineering update: Route 28 bridge phasing, Route 6A village improvements nearing completion

Road Safety Committee (Town of Dennis) · May 21, 2026

Summary

Staff reported lane shifts and demolition/reconstruction sequencing for the Route 28 Bass River bridge, committed to keeping two lanes open; Route 28 West is nearing 75% design and Route 6A village work will add three crosswalks and rapid-flashing beacons.

Town engineering provided a project update: the contractor for the Route 28 / Bass River bridge has shifted traffic lanes to the south and will demolish and rebuild the north side, then return traffic and demolish the south side. Staff said the contractor committed to keeping two lanes of traffic open during construction.

The Route 28 West Dennis design is approaching 75% and will include bike lanes and a shared-use path on the south side with sidewalk on the north; staff expect to return to the Select Board with the 75% concept. The Route 6A village project is nearing completion but will extend slightly into June to finish added contract items; the village work includes three new crosswalks and rapid‑flashing beacons to improve pedestrian connections.
