Parker Street Bridge Overnight Demolition Begins April 11
Updated on April 2, 2021
We’re replacing the bridge that carries the Haverhill Line over Parker Street in Lawrence near Lawrence Station.
This project will bring the bridge to a State of Good Repair, improving safety, resiliency, and reliability of the Haverhill Line.
Building a Better T
As part of our $9.6 billion, 5-year capital investment plan, we're renovating stations, modernizing fare collection systems, upgrading services for our buses, subways, and ferries, and improving the accessibility of the entire system.
What to Expect During this Work
Work will begin at 8 PM on Sunday, April 11 and continue Monday through Friday from 8 PM to 5 AM until April 16th.
There will be an additional full weekend of demolition work from 8 PM on Friday, April 16 to 5 AM on Monday, April 19.
Neighborhood Impacts
To allow for this work, Parker Street will be closed to travel during work hours and the weekend of April 17. We will install signage indicating the detour route before construction begins. We encourage drivers to avoid the area or seek alternate routes to avoid delays.
