Massachusetts Declares Immediate Travel Ban for South Coast Amid Blizzard
TL;DR Summary
Governor Healey signed an executive order banning non-essential motor vehicle travel in Bristol, Plymouth, and Barnstable counties due to dangerous snow and road conditions, with the Mass Pike speed reduced to 40 mph; exemptions cover essential workers and critical services, and the ban will be lifted when MassDOT determines conditions are safe, as the department redeploys snow removal resources and statewide highway service is expected to remain limited for an extended period.
