Winter work on the Herring River
A long closure on Wellfleet’s Bound Brook Island Road is scheduled to begin November 16, 2026, for installation of a second culvert along the Herring River. Truro relayed the construction notice on November 12.
Access during the closure
Wellfleet says vehicles, bicycles and pedestrians will be unable to pass through the closure. Bound Brook Island residents must approach from the north using Pamet Point Road.
The notice names Pamet Point Road and Coles Neck Road as detour routes and estimates that the disruption will continue into early March 2027. The work is part of the Herring River Restoration Project.
