Superintendent George Price announces that Province Lands Road, between Race Point Road and the entrance to Herring Cove Beach, will be closed for reconstruction between November 1, 2014 and mid-March 2015. Work includes resurfacing 2.4 miles of Province Lands Road, realigning the entrance road to Herring Cove Beach parking lot, and replacing two existing bicycle trail bridges with concrete box culverts to increase the overhead clearance for bicyclists passing under Province Lands Road. Detour signs will be posted identifying Race Point Road as the alternate route to Provincetown Airport, Race Point Beach, and the Province Lands Visitor Center. More information about temporary closures or detours on Province Lands Bike Path will be announced at a later date and posted to the Cape Cod National Seashore website, www.nps.gov/caco. Federal Highway funding is being used to repair this stretch of roadway, which is in the worst condition of all park roads, and to improve bicyclist safety through the replacement of the undersized road crossings. ###
