State Delays Single-Lane Traffic on Basiliere Bridge in Haverhill

September 30, 2026

The Pfc. Ralph T. Basiliere Bridge carries Route 125 over the Merrimack River in Haverhill. Stormy weather has given drivers a brief reprieve on the bridge.

The state Department of Transportation says it is delaying a planned change to single-lane traffic on the Basiliere Bridge. The department says the single-lane setup would have alternated between northbound traffic toward downtown Haverhill and southbound traffic toward Bradford, and that the change was to begin Monday.
