BRUNSWICK/TOPSHAM - The Maine Department of Transportation will be performing a bridge inspection of the Frank J. Wood Bridge on September 1st and 2nd. This bridge carries Route 201 between Brunswick and Topsham. The Frank J. Wood Bridge is a fracture critical bridge. The Federal Highway Administration requires inspections of fracture critical bridges at least every two years. Because of the poor condition of the Frank J. Wood Bridge, MaineDOT engineers inspect it annually. Our inspection work will impact traffic. Drivers should expect impacts between 8:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. on both days. Southbound traffic moving from Topsham to Brunswick will be able to cross the bridge. Northbound traffic from Brunswick to Topsham will be detoured to the Topsham Bypass and Route 196. The Frank J. Wood Bridge is scheduled to be replaced. MaineDOT expects to put the project out to bid in the first half of 2021.
