The northbound off-ramp from Interstate 95 to Broadway in Bangor will be closed over the first weekend in October for construction.

The closure will start at 8 p.m. Friday, Oct. 3, and continue until 5 a.m. Monday, Oct. 6, according to the Maine Department of Transportation.

A detour will direct drivers to Exit 186, Stillwater Avenue, then back along Stillwater Avenue to Broadway.

This closure is part of an ongoing bridge replacement and highway safety improvement project, according to Maine DOT.

The contractor on the $34 million project is New England Infrastructure, Inc.
