Geotechnical Onshore Survey
Dates: November 14 - December 16
CURRENT ACTIVITIES
Geotechnical Onshore Survey work is currently taking place in Osterville, Centerville, Marstons Mills, and West Barnstable for the Commonwealth Wind Project.
Estimated dates of work: November 14, 2022 to December 16, 2022. No work will be done from November 23, 2022 to November 27, 2022 due to the Thanksgiving Holiday.
The purpose of the Geotechnical Onshore Survey is to analyze the soil conditions under public roadways in Barnstable. Soil borings will be taken to determine the viability of installing a duct bank and cable system under public roadways.
There will be a single truck coned off in one traffic lane, with a detail officer or flagger directing traffic. There should be minimal disruption to traffic and abutters. Each boring is anticipated to take 3-4 hours.
