From our friends at the Dept. of Conservation and Recreation:
The General Edwards Bridge on Route 1A connecting Lynn and Revere is scheduled to close this weekend to vehicular and pedestrian traffic. The closure will happen from 3 AM Saturday, May 19 to 5 AM Monday, May 21. They are testing the counterweights on the bridge span. If the work is completed earlier than 5 AM Monday, the bridge will open up a bit sooner.
Traffic will be detoured to Route 107 (Broadway in Revere, Western Ave. in Lynn) during this closure period.
