Heads Up, Bar Harbor Residents: Temporary Closure of Cadillac Summit Road for Repaving

The National Park Service (NPS) plans to close Cadillac Summit Road in Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor, Maine temporarily. The closure, starting on Monday, May 6, at 6:00 a.m. and ending on Thursday, May 9, at 8:00 a.m., will close the road to all traffic. This is due to necessary repaving and striping work.

The work schedule depends on weather conditions. Paving can only be done when the air temperature is above 40°F and it's not raining. The NPS is monitoring the weather to choose the best time for the work.

Besides Cadillac Summit Road, the NPS expects single lane closures on parts of the Park Loop Road during the season. Park visitors should anticipate delays and plan their visits accordingly.
