Dear EZDriveMA Customer,
Lane Reductions and Ramp Closures on I-90 in Boston on the Weekend of June 1-3 for Dry Run
Beginning at 9:00 PM on Friday, June 1, MassDOT will reduce I-90 (Mass Pike) between the Allston Interchange and the Beacon Street Overpass in Boston to two lanes in each direction. I-90 will reopen to four lanes in each direction by 5:00 AM on Sunday, June 3. This will allow MassDOT and its contractor to conduct necessary preparation activities and a "dry run" to test the I-90 traffic logistics for the 2018 Construction Shutdown (July 26 – August 11), with the goal of making sure it will run as smoothly as possible.
The I-90 Eastbound on-ramp from Cambridge Street/Soldier's Field Road will be closed during the dry run. The I-90 Westbound Exit 20 off-ramp to Brighton/Cambridge will be closed intermittently.
See the I-90 (Mass Pike) Ramp Closures Detour Map and directions on the Traffic Management page (http://www.massdot.state.ma.
During the dry run, a "crossover" on I-90 will direct all vehicles to either the eastbound
or westbound roadways at different periods of time. There will be no impacts to the MBTA
Green Line, Commuter Rail, or local vehicular traffic during the dry run.
I-90 Impacts during the 2018 Construction Shutdown
