The Route 13 bridge that connects Worcester and Somerset counties is expected to see some traffic pattern changes this morning as the state begins a $14.4 million upgrade project.
The State Highway Administration plans to replace bridge decks on the northbound lanes and resurface the decks on the southbound lanes.
The state also plans to repair steel beams and concrete surfaces of the bridge piers.
It will also get a new paint job.
WBOC reports that repairs this morning will shut down both southbound lanes and will use a temporary median crossover to redirect traffic.
