GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) – A traffic alert for folks looking to head to downtown Green Bay this weekend.
The Green Bay Public Works Department says the Ray Nitschke Bridge, which carries Main Street/Highway 141 over the Fox River, will close to traffic at 8 p.m. Friday. The bridge will reopen at 6 p.m. Sunday.
Officials say bridge lifts will continue as needed for boat traffic on the river. The bridge will be shut down between Broadway and Washington Street.
Traffic will be detoured onto the Donald A. Tilleman Bridge (Mason Street/Hwy. 54) using Ashland Avenue, Mason Street and Monroe Avenue.
The Walnut Street Bridge will remain open, but officials warn that there may be traffic backups since some lanes are closed for an ongoing construction project.
