Barre Falls Dam

The Barre Falls Dam is located on the Ware River in Barre, Massachusetts, United States, about 0.3 miles (0.48 km) below the junction of the river's east and west branches and 13 miles (21 km) northwest of Worcester, Massachusetts. Designed and constructed by the United States Army Corps of Engineers, this dam substantially reduces flooding along the Ware, Chicopee, and Connecticut rivers. Construction of the project began in May 1956 with completion in July 1958 at a cost of US$2 million. The Barre Falls reservoir is within the Upper Ware River Watershed and is part of the Chicopee River Watershed. Access to the site is available from Route 62.
