BOSTON —
The North Washington Street Bridge is a historic bridge that was constructed prior to the 1900s.
After 117 years in service, the bridge is beginning to fail. MassDOT said the bridge is structurally deficient and heavy trucks and vehicles are restricted. There have been extensive emergency repairs done to the bridge in the past few years.
Construction on a new bridge is expected to begin soon and will last four years. MassDOT secured millions of dollars in federal funding to replace the aging structure.
