Building Restoration Information

•

Over the next two weeks, scaffolding will be erected at the front of First Parish to the top of the spire. Once erected, restoration and repainting will begin. During these two weeks, the entrance driveway will be used as a staging area for the scaffolding, requiring the following changes in the normal traffic pattern:

Monday-Saturday:

  • Normal entrance driveway will be closed;
  • Normal exit driveway will be for entrance only;
  • Exit will be at the rear or the parking lot.  Maximum exit speed: 5 MPH from parking lot, over big bump, to Worthen Road.

Sunday morning, May 21

  • Normal entrance driveway will be closed;
  • Normal exit driveway will be used for entrance only until 10:30 AM;
  • Between 10:30 and 11:30 AM, both driveways will be closed;
  • Between 11:30 AM and 1:00 PM, normal exit driveway will be for exit only.
  • After 1:00 PM, the traffic pattern will revert to the Monday-Saturday traffic pattern described above.

Barricades, cones, and signs will be employed. On Sunday morning, May 21, volunteers will direct traffic to add another level of safety.
