I'm sure most local folks know by now the Department of Transportation will be working this weekend on the heavily-traversed Route 34 span over the Naugatuck River in Derby.
But I'm sharing this information anyway, since it is a big deal for all of us who daily drive around these parts. Part of a press release follows:
"Lawmakers and the Connecticut Department of Transportation (DOT) are advising motorists to be aware of some much-needed work this weekend on the Route 34 bridge carrying traffic over the Naugatuck River in Derby.
"State Representatives Linda M. Gentile (D-Ansonia/Derby), Theresa Conroy (D-Beacon Falls/Derby/Seymour), and Themis Klarides (R-Woodbridge/Orange/Derby, and State Senator Joseph J. Crisco, Jr. (D-Woodbridge) have been advised by the DOT that, weather permitting, crews will close the Route 34 bridge between Friday, Sept. 9 at 10 p.m. and Monday, Sept. 12 at 5 a.m.
"The closure will allow placement of a new concrete bridge deck. The bridge project is due to be completed in November."
