202/9 Construction update:
NH DOT: Hybrid Roundabout Construction in Henniker-Hopkinton - Update August 7, 2026
Traffic will be impacted through October 2026
Friday August 7, 2026 UPDATE FROM DOT:
All concrete islands and truck aprons have been placed. Guardrail is being installed today August 7.

Overhead sign structures are scheduled for installation next week along with the project road signs.

Finally, we are scheduled to pave the final wearing course on Monday, August 17 and Tuesday August 18, weather permitting.

This will require closing down Route 127 and Old Concord Road temporarily and moving traffic around to allow the pavement to be placed. There will be one way alternating traffic on Route 202/9 for some of the paving due to the width of pavement to be placed and time for the pavement to cool to allow traffic on the freshly paved road.

Final striping to occur after pavement marking layout and approval of layout. There will be limited markings prior to final striping of the project.

Unfortunately, we were just notified that the Pond has been issued a warning for cyanobacterial blooms. It is just a warning. The beach is not closed. Hopefully tomorrow's rain will help.
