In another part of Boston, drivers should also be aware of a bridge closure in Roslindale. The Canterbury Street Bridge will be closed to vehicular traffic starting Friday, September 12 at 9:00 p.m. This closure is due to findings from a recent bridge inspection that deemed it necessary for safety reasons. Pedestrian access will still be available but drivers should follow detour signage in place.

The primary detour route will utilize Hyde Park Avenue, Cummins Highway, Rowe Street, Brown Avenue, and Seymour Street. Eastbound traffic will follow Seymour Street to Brown Avenue and then onto Cummins Highway while westbound traffic will use Hyde Park Avenue to Cummins Highway before turning onto Rowe Street and then Seymour Street.

Drivers traveling through these areas should expect delays and are advised to reduce speed and use caution. The closure of Canterbury Street Bridge is until further notice as MassDOT works towards resolving any issues with the bridge's safety.
