To clarify reports regarding the detours for the RT9 project, there will be both a “Regional Detour” and “Hillsboro Detour”.
The regional detour will direct all traffic originating west of Rt. 340 to follow Rt. 340 to Rt. 7. We expect 60 to 65 percent of the total daily volume of traffic on Route 9 will use the regional detour. The designated HIllsboro detour for traffic around the Town of Hillsboro will be Rt. 719 (Stony Point Road) to Woodgrove Road to Allder School Road then back north on Hillsboro Road to reconnect with Route 9.
NOTE: EXCEPT DURING TEMPORARY FULL CLOSURE PERIODS (TO BE DETERMINED)
ON WEEKDAYS, ONE LANE EASTBOUND WILL BE OPEN THROUGH HILLSBORO FOR MORNING RUSH TRAFFIC FROM 4 A.M. TO 9:30 A.M.
ON WEEKENDS, (BEGINNING FRIDAY’S AT 2 P.M.) ONE-LANE WESTBOUND WILL BE OPEN THROUGH HILLSBORO UNTIL SUNDAYS AT 6 P.M.
OUR PARTNERS MAKE THE DIFFERENCE!
