Maine Transportation Officials: Traffic Detour In Augusta For Bridge Replacement

Maine Department of Transportation

The Maine Department of Transportation is warning motorists traveling on I-95 in Augusta of temporary on- and off-ramps that opened Sunday.

Officials say the new configuration will affect all northbound traffic on Whitten Road, where motorists will encounter a new stop sign and a temporary southbound on-ramp.

The ramps are part of an effort to replace a damaged overpass at the 109A interchange.  The bridge is expected to open later this winter.
