Salem End Road Bridge

This project will repair the Salem End Road Bridge over the Stearns Reservoir. This bridge was identified in the 2013 Framingham Town-Wide Bridge Inspection Master Plan as a replacement priority. The bridge was originally built in 1870 and rebuilt in 1927. The structure exhibits severe deterioration of the concrete requiring closure of the west sidewalk in 2006. It has been determined that moderate repairs will extend the useful life of the bridge at least twenty years, therefore delaying the need for a full bridge replacement.
