Ambulance Traffic Update Lahey Burlington Starting May 12, 2023

Please be advised, starting May 12, 2023 at 16:00 through May 14, 2023 at 19:00 the normal route from Mall Road to the ambulance entrance for the emergency department at Lahey Hospital will NOT be accessible to ambulance traffic.  The hospital has a crane scheduled for that weekend and due to the size of the crane the road will not be passable.  

 

Attached is a map for EMS traffic to access the ED. 

  • From Burlington Mall Rd all traffic will be diverted down South Bedford St to Kimball Ave.  

  • From there all ambulance traffic can follow down Kimball Ave to Loop Rd and take a left.  

  • Ambulances will still be able to come up the hill that they normally do at that point.  

There will be signs directing ambulance traffic, as well as police details.  We ask that emergency ambulances DO NOT use the main entrance, as this will cause confusion.  Interfacility ambulance traffic can still access the main entrance during this time period.

 

We apologize for the inconvenience that this may cause your crews and appreciate everyone's cooperation with this.

 

Any questions, please contact Patrick McGovern, NRP, I/C, Coordinator of Emergency Services T: 781-744-5137  |  C: 781-975-1493 Patrick.mcgovern@lahey.org
