Thursday Afternoon Update on Storm Damage [ [link removed] ] 12/21/2023 04:42 PM EST
AUGUSTA - The Maine Department of Transportation continues to have hundreds of dedicated team members working to assess and repair the damage from Monday's storm.

As of 3:00 p.m. on Thursday, there were 41 road closures and 18 bridge closures. More than two thirds of these roads and bridges are in Franklin, Kennebec, and Oxford Counties. These numbers are down from Tuesday's totals of nearly 100 road closures and nearly three dozen bridge closures. No state-owned bridges were destroyed by Monday's storm. MaineDOT expects an estimated cost of the infrastructure damage could be available as soon as Tuesday.

The Frank J. Wood Bridge, which carries Route 201 over the Androscoggin River between Brunswick and Topsham, remains closed. Crews and contractors are working to repair an area of the approach road. We expect the bridge will be reopened to traffic before the holiday weekend.

The best source for information on road closures continues to be www.newengland511.org, which is continuously updated. Thank you for your continued patience and understanding as our crews work to repair damaged infrastructure. body { font-size: 1em; font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; color: #333333; } ________________________________________________________________________
