FALMOUTH - The Maine Department of Transportation has closed the bridge that carries Johnson Road over I-295 in Falmouth to all traffic. The bridge will remain closed until next August to accommodate the ongoing work to remove the old bridge and replace it with a new one.

All vehicles should use the posted detour, which involves Route 1, Bucknam Road, and Middle Road. Detour routes are signed.

On-site construction to replace the Johnson Road Bridge began in July and is expected to be finished by the end of next year.

The contractor on this project is Wyman & Simpson, Inc. of Richmond. The construction contract amount is approximately $8 million.
