Bridge deck repairs will cause a closure of the ramp leading from Route 24 South to the Interstate 195 East in Fall River.

The Massachusetts Department of Transportation says the closures will take place Wednesday night and Thursday night and will begin at 8:00 p.m. and last until 5:00 a.m.

A detour will be in place leading drivers to Route 24 South onto Interstate 195 West to follow to Roue 24 South to Brayton Avenue and travel to Route 24 North and then onto Interstate 195 East.

Drivers are being asked to avoid the area and seek alternate routes.

Those traveling in that area are being told to expect delays.

In addition, motorists are also being told they should reduce speed and use caution when driving on the detour routes.

MassDot officials says the duration of work is weather dependent and based on the amount of concrete deterioration.
