Woonsocket Bridge Closure Starts June 26

Woonsocket, Rhode Island, is shutting down the historic Diamond Hill Road bridge over the Peters River starting Friday, June 26th—closed for two months as part of a $22.7 million project to rehab five local bridges, with full completion expected by summer 2028. Drivers will be rerouted via Social Street, Cumberland Street, Cass Avenue, Herbert Avenue, Winthrop Street, and St. Leon Avenue; trucks take a separate path through Cass Avenue and Mendon Road. Pedestrians will also be blocked from crossing. With 11,500 cars daily, this closure is a major disruption—plan ahead to avoid the hassle.
