High Drive, between Chestnut Hill Drive and West Cohasset Drive, Chestnut Hill Drive, between Canfield Road and High Drive and Calvary Run Drive, between Belle Vista Avenue and Milton Avenue will all be closed to cars starting Friday, December 8th. 

While these roads will be closed to vehicles, they will be open for recreational use. The roads will be remain open so people can go hiking, cross country skiing and sledding.
