 | 
| Good afternoon, |


| With more projects underway, please be mindful of new traffic patterns you may encounter as you travel throughout Rhode Island, like along I-95 North at the Viaduct in Providence. Continue to drive cautiously and carefully as you follow any new lane shifts or closures and don’t be distracted by any construction equipment that may be present as you drive through. |

| Henderson Bridge, East Providence/Providence |


|   |


| Next week, we will have weekday alternating one-way traffic on East River Street under the Henderson Bridge to install underdeck shielding. Our other daytime operations include demolition of the steel beams over land and water and excavation prior to the demolition of the closed ramp from Massasoit Avenue to the Henderson Bridge. |

| I-95 North Viaduct, Providence |


|   |


| Alternating lane closures are planned for overnight sign installation. Motorists can anticipate construction vehicles entering and exiting the work zone on I-95 North for weekday demolition of the vacant bridge between I-95 North and South. Daytime lane closures are also scheduled on Route 6, Providence Place, and Promenade, Charles and Ashburton streets for barrier installation, demolition prep and bridge abutment repairs. Since the area is newly striped, please continue to use caution and drive carefully through the work zone. Get project highlights here. |

| Kingston Road Bridge, Richmond |


|   |


| We will continue to build the new Kingston Road Bridge deck and backwalls next week while we excavate and install gravel prior to paving along both directions of I-95. This will lengthen the acceleration lanes to make it easier to merge with highway traffic. We are also scheduled to continue weekday drainage work, highway lighting and granite curbing installations within the existing traffic patterns on both I-95 and Route 138.  |
