MassDOT Ready to Replace Eight Bridges in Eight Weekends

The $60-million-plus accelerated bridge project tees up another $400-million makeover next year. The removal and replacement of several Massachusetts Turnpike bridges is the kind of project that could easily take years to complete. But the Massachusetts Dept. of Transportation plans to dramatically speed up the process by replacing eight Turnpike bridges during eight weekends in a $60-million-plus project the agency has dubbed the “Acceler-8,” project.
