FALL RIVER — MassDOT will implement overnight single lane closures on I-195 East and West on the Braga Bridge from Tuesday, July 5, through Friday, July 8. The closures are from 8 p.m. each night to 6 a.m. the following morning.

One lane in each direction will be closed and traffic shifted between the Somerset and Fall River sides of the bridge. The lane shifts are necessary to allow the contractor to perform joint repairs.

Drivers who must travel through the affected area should expect delays, reduce speed, and use caution while approaching and traveling through the work zone. MassDOT encourages drivers to seek alternate routes to avoid delays.
