MANCHESTER, NH – Manchester’s Department of Public Works (DPW) announced Nov. 3 that rehabilitation work on the Amoskeag Bridge Eastbound will require a SECOND closure of the Amoskeag Bridge Westbound during the night/morning hours (11 p.m.-7 a.m.) of November 7, 2026 thru November 8, 2025.
Detours and electronic message bords will be in place. The posted detour will send traffic to Bridge Street, Elm Street, and Eddy Road. This closure is required for the CONTINUED placement of the mid-span bridge deck sections on the Eastbound bridge and is weather-dependent.
