Look-ahead: January 16 - January 30, 2026
Travel impacts
Over the next two weeks, drivers should expect lane narrowing on the bridge, on West Roxbury Parkway, and at the Belgrade Avenue intersection, as needed. As work impacts sidewalk access, a detour redirecting pedestrians will be in place.
On the weekend of January 31, MBTA Commuter Rail Service on the Needham Line will be suspended all day Saturday and Sunday so that the Contractor can relocate Positive Train Control (PTC) conduits underneath the bridge. A separate advisory with more details about the closure will be distributed.
