The City of Boston conducts regular proactive maintenance to ensure that our bridges remain safe and functional. As part of this program, we will be making repairs to the Moakley Bridge that connects Downtown Boston to the Seaport District. The bridge will be intermittently closed the weekend of 6/21/2025 so our contractor can raise the structure with jacks to replace older bearings. 

Residents should call 311 or email publicworks@boston.gov  with any questions or concerns.
