MassDOT to implement two-lane shift Nov. 26 on Route 20
Lenox — On Tuesday, Nov. 26, the Massachusetts Department of Transportation will be implementing a two-lane traffic shift on Route 20, approximately half a mile east of the intersection with Route 7.
The traffic shift is part of a project to install a tunnel under Route 20. This shift, which is expected to be in place until February 2020, will facilitate Phase 1 of the tunnel’s installation. The tunnel project is part of a privately funded major renovation to the Cranwell Resort in Lenox and is being performed though an easement agreement and access permit between Miraval and MassDOT.
Drivers traveling through the affected areas should expect delays, reduce speed and use caution. All scheduled work is weather dependent and/or may be impacted due to an emergency situation.
