(Montague, MA) Residents have been noticing the significant progress on the General Pierce Bridge between Greenfield and Montague. MassDOT reports that the project is 85% complete and may be completed before the original completion date of May 15th 2023.
The purpose of the project was to rehabilitate the structurally deficient bridge and to improve on the state of the bridge approaches on both sides in order for the bridge to be in good standing for the next 25 years. The cost of the project currently stands at $13.7 million.
