Section of Route 10 north expected to be closed over weekend
PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WLNE) — The Rhode Island Department of Transportation said that a section of Route 10 north will be closed over the weekend.
Route 10 north, where it meets Route 6, in Providence will be closed 7 p.m. Friday and reopen at 5 a.m. Monday.
That section of Route 10 will be torn down and rebuilt as part of the $410 million Route 6/10 Interchange project.
The Department of Transportation warned that the closure will likely cause traffic delays, and drivers are encouraged to use alternate routes.
Directions for the Route 10 north detour:
- Take exit 3B for Route 6 west
- Take the next exit for Hartford Avenue
- Turn left at the bottom of the ramp
- Take the next left after the underpass and get on Route 6 east
- Follow signs to Route 10 north
Large trucks will be directed to the Killingly Street interchange to reverse direction onto Route 6 east.
