Whipple Road Paving Update - September 28, 2023

Update - September 28, 2023

Paving operations are moving along quickly and ahead of schedule. All streets in Admiralty village should be completed by the end of the week. 

Paving will begin on Whipple Road (portion from Woodlawn to Kittery Point bridge) on Monday, September 11. Residents should expect traffic delays while the paving work is completed. Equipment operation and construction within the confines of roadways is very difficult and safety is always a concern. We appreciate the patience of drivers, pedestrians, and cyclists, as we work to complete this project.

If you have any concerns or questions about the project, please contact Public Works Inspector, Jessa Kellogg at (207) 752-7242.
