The Rhode Island Department of Transportation is planning to demolish a bridge in Providence this upcoming Friday and Saturday as part of a rapid replacement project.
RIDOT says the Glenbridge Avenue overpass on Route 6 will have a new bridge in place within one week.
Route 6 will be closed in both directions for the demolition.
Motorists will be detoured onto Hartford Avenue.
The Glenbridge Avenue Bridge is 53 years old and carries about 14-thousand vehicles daily.
