[ARCHIVED] Rock Harbor Commercial Wharf Improvements Update

Rock Harbor square

Work is resuming at the Rock Harbor Commercial Wharf this fall. Here’s what to know:

 Location: 113 Rock Harbor Rd, Orleans
Timeline:

  • Week of Sept 29: Contractor mobilization begins

  • Oct 22: Major construction resumes (steel pipe pile driving)

Impacts:

  • Public access to the Commercial Wharf will be restricted once work begins. Local businesses remain open and accessible outside the project site.

  • Expect increased noise from pile driving.

  • Increased truck traffic on Bay View Dr. as materials are delivered and stored in the Rock Harbor parking lot.

  • Mariners: Use caution around installed steel piles, travel at slow speed, and monitor VHF Ch. 16/13.

Questions? Contact the Town of Orleans DPW at (508) 240-3790 or rwaldo@town.orleans.ma.us.

Thank you for your patience as we complete these important improvements!
