The New Hampshire Department of Transportation (NHDOT) is continuing the rehabilitation work on the NH Route 12A bridge over the Sugar River in Claremont, NH and will fully close the bridge during the daytime for at least two days.
 
On Wednesday, July 17, 2024, and Thursday, July 18, 2024, the bridge will be fully closed to travelers for the removal of existing steel in the northbound lane (Phase 2 construction).  A detour will be utilized from 7:00 am to 7:00 pm to direct road users around the closure.  The work may also require closing the bridge on Friday, July 19, 2024.
 
Message boards will be used to notify road users as the work progresses and everyone should remain alert while traveling through the work zone and obey all posted signs. Travelers are also encouraged to sign up for free, real-time construction and traffic related messages (text or email) from https://newengland511.org/.   
 
This project will replace the superstructure (structural steel plate girders and bridge deck), road work before and after the bridge, substructure repairs, and the installation of scour countermeasures to protect piers and abutments.  
 
Evroks Corporation of Tilton, NH is the contractor for the $5.7 million dollar project that has a completion date of September 19, 2025.
