Commutes on Rte. 2 and Greenwich Avenue may take some extra time this week as overhead wires are moved on the former and repairs are made on the I-295 bridge over the latter, RIDOT reports.
Smash Burger, among the fastest growing fast casual restaurants in the US, celebrated the opening of its first RI location Thursday with the help of Mayor Scott Avedisian, The Central RI Chamber of Commerce, and executives of the Mohegan Holding Company, which owns the franchise.
The failing East Avenue West Bridge on Rte. 295, carrying more than 21,000 vehicles daily on Route 113 (East Avenue) over I-295 in Warwick, is getting a sorely needed $1.8 million repair job from Cardi Corp. starting the week of July 27.
Warwick, RI – Starting during Monday’s commute, work on the Barton Corner Bridge over Rte. 2 is going to close exit 8 on Rte. 95 south (affecting access to Rte. 2 north only; access to Rte. 2 south will be available) and and the Rte. 95 south on-ramp from Rte. 2 North. Those changes will last for about 11 days, according to the DOT.
