The state transportation agency said Samuel Barnet Boulevard will be completely closed to most traffic for work at the railroad crossing starting from noon on Saturday, Sept. 24 until noon on Sunday, Sept. 25.
Only local business traffic and emergency vehicles will be allowed to pass to the entrance to Crapo Hill Landfill at 600 Quanapoag Rd. in Dartmouth during the 24-hour closure.
