BURRILLVILLE – As part of its ongoing project to rehabilitate the Joslin Road Bridge, which carries Route 102/Broncos Highway over Joslin Road and the Branch River, the Rhode Island Department of Transportation will conduct two overnight closures on a section of Route 102.
The closures will take place on two Sunday nights this month, April 12 and April 26, from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. each night.
During the closures, motorists will use Glendale Bypass, Victory Highway and East Avenue to detour. Local traffic will be permitted between East Avenue and the bridge. Joslin Road under the bridge will not be closed.
Rehabilitation of this bridge is part of a $18.8 million, multibridge project in Burrillville, RIDOT notes. The Joslin Road Bridge carries approximately 16,000 vehicles per day. Also in Burrillville, RIDOT rehabilitated the Glendale Bridge on Victory Highway and Nasonville Concrete Arch Bridge on Douglas Pike/Routute 7. The entire project will be finished in summer 2026.
RIDOT notes that all construction projects are subject to changes in schedule and scope depending on needs, circumstances, findings and weather.
