The Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) announced it will be conducting overnight milling operations on the Interstate 495 southbound ramps to and from the MassPike in Hopkinton and Westborough. The work is scheduled to take place from 11 p.m. this Wednesday through 5 a.m. this Thursday.

The work will require temporary ramp closures and detours will be in place.
