Inspections of Market Street bridges scheduled for Friday, March 22nd

Detailed inspections of the Market Street bridges over North Mill Pond are tentatively scheduled to be conducted on Friday, March 22nd, depending on weather conditions.  The inspections will be conducted using a single under-bridge inspection vehicle. This vehicle will occupy the right-hand land of either the eastbound or the westbound structure for the duration of the work. Flaggers and signage will be present on either end of the impacted bridge to provide notice to traffic of the lane closure. Users of the bridge should expect minor delays.

Should weather conditions prevent the work from being completed on Friday, the inspections will be rescheduled and another press release will be issued with the new date. This work is being completed as part of the City’s Bridge Capital Improvement Program. For more information on this project you can contact Ryan Flynn, Construction Project Coordinator, at 603-766-1413 or raflynn@cityofportsmouth.com.
