The shoulders will be closed on the Piscataqua River Bridge for safety inspections.
The closure will run from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Thursday this week and then May 18 to 21 next week.
The Maine Department of Transportation called it a routine inspection.
For drivers, it will mean reduced speeds on the bridge, which carries I-95 over the Piscataqua River.
The Piscataqua River Bridge connects Portsmouth, New Hampshire, to Kittery, Maine. Between 70,000 and 80,000 vehicles use the bridge daily, with higher traffic volumes during peak periods, according to the Maine Department of Transportation.
The $156,000 contract was awarded to VHB Inc. of South Portland.
