bridge closure

Crossing temporarily unavailable

Bridge closure is the temporary or permanent shutting down of a bridge to traffic.

Closures occur for repairs, safety concerns, or extreme weather: The bridge closure added twenty minutes to my commute.

A closure may be partial, restricting certain lanes or vehicle types, or complete, barring all passage.
