Ok it has been since SPRING now with this Route 9 bridge repair and the detour is still up. Anybody heard anything real about a completion date or are we just supposed to keep guessing

heard through a guy who works on the crew that they're waiting on some parts that got delayed, not sure how true that is

The detour is adding a solid 20 minutes to my drive into town every single day. Getting real old real fast.

They rebuilt that same bridge back in the 60s and it dragged on forever then too, so this is nothing new unfortunately. Patience, folks.
