Wednesday Afternoon Update on Storm Damage

AUGUSTA - The Maine Department of Transportation is continuing to assess and repair damage caused by Monday's rain and wind. The situation is dynamic, but as of 3:00 p.m. on Wednesday, there were 66 road closures and 25 bridge closures. More than half of those closures are in Franklin, Kennebec, and Oxford Counties. No bridges have collapsed due to this storm; most of the damage is on the approach roads to the bridges. Engineers are continuing to conduct on-site assessments. We expect an estimated cost of the infrastructure damage will not be available for several days.

Friday Afternoon Update on Storm Damage

AUGUSTA - The Maine Department of Transportation continues to make progress on repairing the infrastructure damaged by Monday's storm.

As of 1:00 p.m. on Friday, there were 21 road closures and ten bridge closures. Eleven of the road closures are due to trees and power lines still being in the roadway. Some infrastructure continues to be impacted by high water. Most of the roads and bridges that remain closed are in Franklin and Oxford Counties.

Farmington Falls Detour Bridge Being Removed Following Storm Damage

FARMINGTON FALLS - The Maine Department of Transportation is removing the temporary detour bridge that was being using during the construction of the new Farmington Falls Bridge, which carries Route 41 over the Sandy River between Chesterville and Farmington. The temporary bridge has been closed to traffic and pedestrians due to damage it sustained during the December 18th storm. MaineDOT has made the decision to remove the temporary bridge rather than repair it. The contractor will proceed with completing the new bridge as quickly as possible.
