Public Meeting Notice  Boston - Bowker Overpass Bridge Superstructure Replacement and Widening

A Live Virtual Public Information Meeting will be hosted by MassDOT to discuss the construction process and local impacts of the bridge superstructure replacement and widening.

Purpose: 

This meeting will provide the public with the opportunity to become fully acquainted with the construction process and local impacts of the bridge superstructure replacement and widening. All residents, local business owners, and interested commuters are invited to attend. Meeting attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions and offer comments.

Proposal: 

Construction is expected to begin in the summer of 2025 and will last approximately four years, completing in 2029.
