Vermont Business Magazine The Vermont Agency of Transportation (VTrans) announces the closure of VT 103 Bridge #16 over the Williams River just south of Smokeshire Road as part of the VT 103 Bridge #16 Deck Replacement Project. VTrans plans to implement a traffic shift on VT 103 onto the temporary roadway and bridge constructed to carry vehicles over the Williams River during the closure period.
Starting TOMORROW, Friday, May 20, VT 103 Bridge #16 over Williams River will be closed and traffic will be shifted onto the temporary bridge constructed downstream from the existing bridge. The closure and traffic shift will remain in place 24-hours a day, 7 days a week throughout the closure period. The closure period is anticipated to be in effect starting Friday, May 20, through October 2022. The start of the closure is weather dependent.
