Eversource is working on a new submarine line between Falmouth and Martha's Vineyard that requires installation of duct banks in Falmouth roads and the Shining Sea Bikeway between Stephens Lane and Mill Road/Surf Drive.

Monday, April 14 - Friday, April 18 Update

Next week, you may see crews:

• Continuing restoration on the Shining Sea Bikeway between Ter Heun Drive and Locust Street.
• Demobilizing equipment and restoring the Mill Road parking lot. 
• Installing a manhole, or underground vault, in the Surf Drive parking lot (56 Surf Drive).

 A suggested detour is in place to accommodate work on the bike path, which is closed between Ter Heun Drive and Locust Street (see map below). Work along the path is anticipated to be completed by early spring of 2025.

 Please Note:

• The Depot Ave parking lot, located at 81 Depot Ave, is also closed for the duration of this work.  
• A portion of the Surf Drive parking lot, located at 56 Surf Drive, will be cordoned off and closed for the duration of this work. 
• The Mill Road parking lot, located at the corner of Mill Road and Surf Drive, is closed for the duration of this work.
