Gowanus Canal Bridge Information

GRT construction may require full-day closures of the Gowanus Canal bridges for certain activities. When daily closures are planned, GRT will update this page to provide a weekly schedule of planned work. Due to the nature of complex construction, this schedule may be subject to change without notice. At all times all bridges along the canal may experience short term closures that last about fifteen minutes to facilitate vessel movement.

Note: This page will typically be updated weekly on Friday afternoon

Daily Closures

The daily closures will be in effect only on days that GRT crews are working in between the bridge abutments. On those days there will be a continuous full-day closure, and signs will be deployed at the bridge’s approaches to indicate that the bridge is closed for the day. This page will be updated regularly to provide advance notice of daily closures when possible.

Short Term Closures

At all times all bridges along the canal may experience short term closures that last about fifteen minutes to facilitate vessel movement. The cleanup of the Gowanus Canal requires frequent vessel movement, resulting in frequent short term bridge closures.

Private construction vessels that traverse the canal may sometimes cause the bridges to close to allow vessel movement. Scheduled DOT maintenance may also cause the bridges to be closed. Bridge closures in these cases are not affiliated with GRT construction.
