NIAGARA FALLS, N.Y. (WKBW) — The New York State Department of Transportation announced Friday that, weather permitting, one lane of the I-190 south bridge over Niagara Falls Boulevard will reopen on Saturday, December 6.
The portion of the I-190 south in that area has been closed since mid-November after a truck carrying a shipping container struck the underside of the bridge. The NYSDOT said initial emergency repairs to the bridge have been completed ahead of schedule.
The following on-ramps to I-190 southbound will also reopen Saturday morning after they were closed to help manage traffic flow during the full closure of the southbound bridge:
- Porter Road/Packard Road
- Witmer Road
The NYSDOT said motorists are reminded that the second southbound lane on the bridge will remain closed until additional repairs are completed.
