The damage is the result of a Feb. 10 accident when a too-high trash truck hit a beam on the bridge. Since then, both the on-ramp from Route 126 to I-93 Southbound and the right lane of Route 126 Westbound on the bridge have been closed. Those closures will continue until repairs can be completed, MassDOT said.
Signage, police and message boards will be in place, the department said. More information is available here.
