A detour is being put in place for work on the Route 133 DOT project in Bridgewater.  Route 133 will be closed from Route 67 in New Milford to Route 25 in Brookfield starting March 13th.  The detour will be in place for about four months. 

Route 133 will reopen at the end of July. 

The detour will follow Route 202/7 south to Route 25 in Brookfield.  Northrup Street is closed to all truck traffic except local delivery. 

5,200 feet of roadway will be resurfaced.  3,300 feet of roadway will be realigned, along with other safety improvements. A new 750 foot retaining wall will be built on the west side of Route 133.  Richards Corporation was awarded the project last August, at a cost of $5,681,777.  It's scheduled to be completed in August 2017.
