Val was hired in 2016 and Karen was hired in 2021.

If you see Val or Karen around town, please thank them and wish them good luck in retirement.

Everyone at Sharon Police Departments thanks you and wishes you well.

Sharon Police Department is saddened by the sudden passing of Retired Sharon Police Lieutenant Donald Williams. Don served for more than 30 years, reaching the rank of Lieutenant. He served and retired from the United States Army and completed three separate tours in Iraq. In retirement he immersed himself in the Sharon Community volunteering for many boards, organizations, and events. He was involved with the American Legion, Sharon Veterans of Foreign War, Sharon Rotary, Sharon Substance Prevention and Resource Coalition (SSPARC), Sharon Historical Society, Massachusetts Police Accreditation Commission, Sharon Police Special, and more. Don received the Sharon Citizen of the Year award in 2024 for his commitment to the community of Sharon.

Our sympathy, love, and support are with the family, community, and members of the Sharon Police Department.

HAITI VS. SCOTLAND ⚽

THE TIME HAS COME! Our first World Cup match is upon us this Saturday.

This historic event is expected to bring a large number of visitors to Foxborough, many of whom will be visiting our town for the very first time.

Just like any major stadium event, please expect traffic delays throughout town. Our standard major-event road closures and detours will be in effect (including North Street, Beach Street, and Baker Street).

There will also be a high volume of train traffic coming through town, so please expect delays at most railroad crossings.

Lots open at 5p, and the gates open
shortly after at 6p.

Important items to note:
- Pre-Paid Reservations Only: All stadium-operated spectator parking must be reserved in advance. There will be no drive-up parking sales at the stadium lots.

- Ticket Requirement: Security personnel will check for a valid match ticket and matching email confirmation prior to allowing vehicles entry into the stadium lots. Non-ticket holders will be turned away.

- Capacity Reductions: Official on-site spectator parking has been scaled down for this event.

- To maintain a secure perimeter and prevent gridlock, access to the immediate vicinity of Boston Stadium (Gillette Stadium) is strictly restricted to ticket holders Non-ticket holders will be turned away from all parking gates and pedestrian access points.

- No Private Drop-offs: Drop-offs or pick-ups by private vehicles are completely prohibited anywhere on or around the stadium property. The only drop-off/pick-up accommodations are for restricted rideshare services in Lot 16, where passengers must immediately show a match ticket upon exiting the vehicle.

Countless hours of planning, training, and hard work have gone into ensuring these events run as smoothly and safely as possible. We will have an increased law enforcement presence throughout town to assist us in our mission to protect the stadium, our residents, and everyone visiting.

As always, if you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out.
