Paving on Lynn Fells Parkway, West Wyoming Tuesday Into Wednesday

Drivers should avoid the intersection of West Wyoming Avenue and the Lynn Fells Parkway tonight, according a state Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) traffic advisory.

The advisory issued on Tuesday states that the DCR will be paving West Wyoming Avenue in Stoneham and the Western-most portion of the Lynn Fells Parkway, starting at the Pond Street and West Wyoming intersection, from 8:30 p.m. on Tuesday night through 5:30 a.m. on Wednesday morning.

"Motorists are advised to expect delays and to seek alternate routes if possible," the advisory said.

A little further away, but possibly impacting Melrose, starting today the DCR has closed the left lane closure on the Fellsway West southbound ramp from Roosevelt Circle to Fulton Street in Medford.

The lane closure is to accommodate the storage of a large piece of equipment that will be used by MassDOT in the demolition of the I-93 northbound bridge over Fellsway West (Rte. 28). The demolition is part of the MassDOT I-93 . The lane closure will remain in place until Friday, June 24.
