HOPKINTON – The Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) is announcing it will be implementing a full closure of the Fruit Street Bridge, which carries traffic over the MBTA/CSX Railroad and the Sudbury River in Westborough and Hopkinton.
The closure will start at 7 a.m. on Monday, February 7, 2022.
The bridge will remain closed until Spring of 2023 in order to facilitate bridge construction operations as part of the $12.5 million bridge replacement project.
During the work, traffic will be directed to follow the detour signage in place that includes Route 9 and Route 135 for access.
Appropriate signage and messaging will be in place to guide drivers through the work area.
