In a message from Director of Public Works David Donahue, he said Aggregate Industries will be resurfacing Rockaway Avenue between Atlantic Avenue and Humphrey Street.

Rockaway Avenue is one of the few roads connecting Atlantic Avenue and Humphrey Street between Ocean Avenue and the Swampscott town line. The DPW suggests drivers instead use Clifton or Seaview avenues as an alternative.
