Rt 114/35 Intersection Construction

Construction is scheduled to start on March 25th, 2024 on the 114/35 intersection improvement project.

Shaw Brothers Construction, Gorham, Maine was hired in a competitive bid process to construct intersection improvements and drainage improvements on the Rt. 114/35 intersection in Sebago Lake Village. In this project, the blinking 4 way stop at the Rt 35 and 114 intersection in Sebago Lake Village is to be removed and adaptive traffic signals with mast arms for each approach are proposed to be installed. Adaptive signals are sometimes called smart signals because they are designed and programmed to learn from traffic conditions in real time and adapt to those conditions to improve traffic flow in the corridor. These improvements are expected to improve traffic flow and reduce wait times.

This project was voted on and approved by the residents of Standish at the June 2023 Town Meeting. The Town of Standish hired a professional surveyor to survey the project area and that survey determined that no private land is being encroached upon for this project; all work is being done with the public right of way.

To see this survey and a video presentation on the project as well as contact info, please go to the town’s website at:

Please understand it is Shaw Brother’s intent to complete as much of the work as possible (including base paving) prior to the peak traffic period that occurs starting Memorial Day weekend. However, traffic mast arms are experiencing supply delays and will not be available for several months. Two lane approaches cannot be utilized safely without mast signal arms and therefore, a lane closure and temporary striping will be present until the mast arms can be installed.
