Do Not Plow List

Per the Board of Selectmen’s Policy, the DPW has inspected all private roads in Mashpee to identify conditions that may restrict or prevent the Town’s plowing and/or treating of roads this upcoming winter season.  Below is a list of roads where plowing will be restricted or prevented unless the noted repairs are made.  NOTE: The Town does not plow condominiums or commercial developments.  
 
In order for a road to be removed from either list, residents should make the necessary repairs to the road and then contact the Department of Public Works at dpw@mashpeema.gov or (508) 539-1420 between 7:30 am and 3:30 pm to request a re-inspection.

Restricted Plowing/Treatment

The Restricted Plowing/Treatment roads will be plowed and/or treated, but plowing may be restricted to less than the full road width due to overhead or overhanging vegetation.  For roads with OVERHEAD LIMBS, limbs should be trimmed to a height of 12 feet above the road surface.  For roads with OVERHANGING BRUSH, brush should be cleared a minimum of 2 feet back along each side of the road surface.
 

No Plowing/Treatment

The No Plowing/Treatment roads, in addition to any issues with vegetation as explained above, will not be plowed and/or treated because of defects in the road or lack of a street sign.  For roads with POTHOLES or DRAINAGE DISREPAIR, all defects or structures exceeding two vertical inches should be filled/adjusted.  
IMPORTANT NOTE:  If your road can only be accessed via a road that is on this No Plow List, then your road will also not be plowed until the road on the No Plow List has been removed from the list.
