In cooperation with Structures, construction will begin
\nagain on May 4. Travelers will be diverted to a temporary bridge to allow work
\nto resume on the new mainline bridge and speeds will be reduced to 25 mph in
\nthe construction zone.<\/p>\n
Drivers should expect intermittent lane closures and
\nflagging operations daily beginning May 4. Work will be 7 a.m.-6 p.m. Monday

The bridge replacement project began in April 2019, with
\ncrews constructing a temporary bridge for traffic and installing a new bridge.
\nStructures will continue to work on the bridge replacement, then move to
\nasphalt paving and detour removal and restoration.<\/p>\n
The $3.8 million project was originally scheduled for
\ncompletion in October, but crews now expect it to be completed by the end of July
