Bridge in Burrillville to close for reconstruction
Mar 21, 2025
BURRILLVILLE, R.I. (WLNE) — The Rhode Island Department of Transportation said that Glendale Bridge in Burrillville will temporarily close for reconstruction starting Friday night.
The bridge, which carries Victory Highway over the Branch River between Main Street and Snake Hill Road, will be clo
sed for approximately four months.
RIDOT said the construction will replace the bridge’s superstructure, and closure would allow for the fastest possible reconstruction time.
The following detours will be in place during the closure:
Victory Highway Northbound (through traffic): Turn left onto East Avenue then right onto Route 102 North. Turn right onto Route 7 (Douglas Turnpike) to rejoin Victory Highway or stay on Route 102 North toward North Smithfield.
Victory Highway Southbound (through traffic): Turn right onto Route 7 then left onto Route 102 South. Turn left onto East Avenue to rejoin Victory Highway or stay on Route 102 South toward Chepachet.
Victory Highway Northbound (local traffic): Turn left onto Main Street, then stay right for Joslin Road and follow it to Route 7 South to rejoin Victory Highway. For most drivers, it may be more convenient to head south on Victory Highway, turning right onto East Avenue to reach Route 102 North.
Victory Highway Southbound (local traffic): Turn right onto Glendale Bypass, then left onto Route 102 South, then left at East Avenue to rejoin Victory Highway.
