LUDLOW - The Putts Bridge in Ludlow will be closed from 7 p.m. Tuesday until 5 a.m. Wednesday as part of an ongoing restoration project at the bridge, the Massachusetts Department of Transportation announced.
The contractor on the project needs to close it to traffic to remove the barriers and temporary traffic markings, and install permanent markings.
Structural steel repairs to the truss section of the Putts Bridge that required a lane to be taken in order to remove live loads from above the areas being repaired will be completed by the end of this week. Work on the structural steel repairs to the truss section will continue below on the work platform for another one to two weeks.
The bridge on Route 21 connects Ludlow and the Indian Orchard section of Springfield.
