The work will require single lane traffic that is scheduled to begin Monday, May 7 at the Memorial Bridge and Thursday, May 10 at the Long Bridge. The restriction will begin May 7 on the Memorial Bridge and is expected to continue approximately three workdays. Following that, work will then take place on the Sarah Mildred Long Bridge and continue approximately four workdays.
Plans are to use flaggers, cones, and warning signs to guide vehicles through the work area.
In the event of adverse weather, the start of the lane restriction may be delayed until the next suitable workday. Motorists traveling on the Memorial Bridge and Sarah Mildred Long Bridge between Portsmouth and Kittery are asked to use caution when driving through the work zone, as workers and equipment will be present. Minor delays may be expected.
