​Traffic will be restricted on Route 48 in Boston this week as crews begin work to replace a wall.

A single, alternating lane of traffic will be maintained as crews work in the area between West Smithfield Street and Finney Road from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. through Friday, a district spokesman for the state Department of Transportation said. Crews from A. Liberoni, Inc will conduct the work.

Additional work will begin June 24 to replace a deteriorated block wall in the area. More information will be provided before that roadway closure begins.
