DPW Warns Public of Bridge Closure on Route 669 to Be Replaced With Temporary Bridge.

Location: Route 669 — East of the Department of Agriculture on St. Croix

Date: Effective Feb. 9, 2022 – until further notice.

The Department of Public Works (DPW) notifies St. Croix residents of a bridge closure on Route 669. DPW will work the Department of Planning and Natural Resources (DPNR) regarding permit approvals for the installation of a temporary bridge above the existing structure.

The temporary structure will remove the current load restrictions on the bridge until the existing bridge is fully removed and replaced.

Motorists are asked to comply with the new signs posted and to use alternative routes — such as the Walter I.M. Hodge Lane (Route 69), Casper Holstein Drive (Route 65), Route 707, Route 663 and Route 75 North — to access Upper Love, Lower Love and Grove Place communities.
