Travel Restrictions for Sagamore Bridge
PROJECT OVERVIEW:
Deck repairs and paving on the Sagamore Bridge spanning the Cape Cod Canal in Bourne, Mass., are scheduled to start Sept. 14, 2009 and continue through the Fall of 2009 as long as weather permits (Fall 2009 construction has ended). The 2-phase project will resume as soon as weather permits in early Spring 2010 and is scheduled to be complete in late Spring 2010.
The travel restrictions will begin, weather permitting, on Monday, Sept. 14 at 10 a.m. and will continue 24-hours a day, 7- days a week throughout the Fall of 2009. Motorists planning to use the Sagamore Bridge during this timeframe should be aware that travel delays are likely to occur during the morning and afternoon peak travel periods each day.
The work will consist of removal of existing waterproofing and pavement of the bridge deck, concrete deck repairs, and installation of a new asphalt pavement wearing surface on the Sagamore Bridge. The work will also include replacement of the concrete parapet walls on the bridge abutments, repairs to the concrete sidewalk, removal and resetting of granite curbing, and rehabilitation of the bridge electrical lighting system.
During the scheduled times for repair, travel over the Sagamore Bridge will be reduced from two lanes in each direction to ONE LANE IN EACH DIRECTION. No wide loads will be permitted to cross the span, and State and local police will be on duty at all times work is being performed to assist the motoring public. When work ceases for the winter, the Sagamore Bridge will be fully open to two lanes of traffic in each direction. When Phase 2 work starts in early Spring 2010, traffic will again be reduced to one lane in each direction for the duration of this work.
Message boards, located at both approaches to the Sagamore Bridge, will keep motorists advised of work efforts. Also, fixed signage will be installed at all approach roads to the Sagamore Bridge, alerting motorists to the bridge work and associated travel restrictions. In addition, accessing the Cape Cod Canal website (use the link: http://www.nae.usace.army.mil/recreati/ccc/news/bridgenotices.htm ) will inform on status of the work, and advise of lane shifts and other adjustments to schedule that may interest motorists using the Sagamore Bridge
Additionally, pavement repairs to the Bourne Bridge are also scheduled for completion under this project. This work will be coordinated with the Sagamore Bridge work, so that at least one bridge will be fully open to traffic each day during peak travel periods.
