Boston Bridge Closures Continue: The Boston Bridge is closing nightly, weather permitting, as workers complete the renovation of the span over the Youghiogheny River.

Jim Struzzi, district spokesman for the state Department of Transportation, said crews are replacing the downstream sidewalk and painting the bridge substructure and upper truss. The work requires the bridge to close nightly at 7 p.m. and reopen at 5 a.m., Mondays through Thursdays.

Motorists should use the posted detours, Struzzi said. Cars are requested to use Finney Road, Liberty Way and Washington Boulevard, while large trucks must use Routes 51 and 837.

The bridge reopened last week to traffic during daylight hours. All work is scheduled for completion in December, Struzzi said.
