Traffic Advisory ahead of Main Street Closure for Saturday Shopping

Westport Police Department Release

The Westport Downtown Merchants Association will be holding an outdoor downtown shopping event this Saturday, July 17th from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM.  This event will necessitate the closure of Main Street between Post Road East and Avery Place as well as Elm Street between Main Street and the Baldwin Lot from 6:00 AM until 9:00 PM on Saturday, July 17th.  These road closures will result in traffic congestion downtown and increased pedestrian traffic.  


Motorists should expect delays in the center of town due to these closures.  The Police Department asks that pedestrians utilize the marked crosswalks and motorists use extra caution while driving through the area.
