Roundabout Work Begins in Rehoboth

Work on the reconstruction of Rt.44/118 begins next week, which will convert the highly traveled and dangerous intersection into a traffic roundabout.

The project will involve utility pole upgrades, drainage improvements, roadway lighting, pedestrian and bicycle accommodations, and traffic signal removal, according to District 5 Highway Division of MassDOT, which is conducting the long-planned work.

Town officials expect the project to be completed in July 2025.

Drivers who are traveling through the area are advised to expect delays, reduce speed, and to use caution.
