Resurfacing of Roth Bridge Begins Monday
If you travel over the Roth Bridge – work on replacing the concrete deck overlay will begin on Monday. The work, which is being done by the Army Corps of Engineers, will require lane restrictions and changing traffic patterns – as well as single and double lane closures at specified times. The repairs are necessary for the surface of the nearly 30 year old bridge – this work will end in December.

Northbound:
- No lane closures Monday through Friday between 6:00 am and 9:00 am
- Two-lane closures daily from 9:00 pm to 5:00 am
