The Town of Provincetown will be launching a Coastal Storm Flood Protection Pilot Project this winter.
The initiative aims to mitigate the effects of repeated coastal flooding, and the pilot will target two specific areas on Commercial Street.
The flood protection efforts that include barriers, a sandbag machine and storm drain cleaning, have been made possible through a 150-thousand-dollar Capital Improvement Program approved at the 2024 Annual Town Meeting.
