Sawyer Road in Hampden will be closed starting in mid-August for bridge repairs.
The work on the Sawyer Road Bridge will begin around Aug. 18, according to Hampden Public Safety.
Crews will be repairing the structure and its wing walls.
That will require closing Sawyer Road to thru traffic because of the narrow width of the bridge and the size of equipment crews need to use, Hampden Public Safety said Tuesday.
The closure is expected to last 60 days.
People who need to reach 6 to 305 Sawyer Road can still do so via Western Avenue, while those who need to reach 344 to 529 Sawyer Road can from Meadow Road.
Detour signs will be in place during construction.
The bridge carries Sawyer Road over the West Branch of the Souadabscook Stream.
