updated 06/16/25 with more details on timing and detour courtesy of the Seaport TMA.

The City of Boston will be making repairs to the Moakley Bridge over the weekend of 6/21/2025. Working hours for the project are around the clock, with several periods of the bridge being closed to traffic the weekend of June 21.

Timing: The first closure is scheduled to occur at 11:00pm on Friday night, June 20. The second closure is scheduled to begin mid/late morning Saturday, and the third closure will be beginning late Saturday night. All closures are anticipated to be around 4-5 hours in length. These timings and durations are subject to change based upon how the work proceeds.

Detours: During the bridge closures, the following detours will be in place on the Moakley Bridge - 

  • Westbound: Seaport Blvd to Sleeper St to Congress St to Atlantic Ave

Q: Why is this work being done now?

A: Our goal in the City of Boston is to always keep our bridges and other infrastructure in a good state of repair. This project requires coordination to ensure the work being performed is done so in a safe and effective manner. The upcoming work window was identified as the best available time to complete the necessary repairs

Q: How long will the repairs take? 

A:  The intent to complete the tasks requiring closing the bridge to the weekend of June 21.

Q: Will local abutters be affected by any noise from the construction repairs?

A: Yes, at times residents could be affected by loud noise from contractor equipment, though we do not expect this work to be particularly noisy
