The Bennetts Corners Road bridge over the New York State Thruway in Onondaga County is scheduled to close Monday for approximately four weeks.
The Thruway Authority said the closure is needed for bridge joint work at the crossing between Exit 39 near Syracuse and Fulton and Exit 40 near Weedsport and Auburn.
About 800 vehicles use the bridge each day, according to the authority. The work is weather-dependent, and the schedule could change.
A signed detour will direct motorists to Warners Road, Newport Road and Canal Road during the closure. Traffic on the Thruway mainline will not be affected.
Variable message signs will alert drivers to the closure. The authority said current travel information is available through its mobile app, website and TRANSalert email service.
