KNOWLESVILLE – The lift bridge in Knowlesville will be closed beginning today so the state Department of Transportation can perform necessary maintenance repairs.

The bridge is expected to be closed for up to two weeks, state Sen. George Maziarz’s office advised.

The bridge, which was built in 1910, has had a weight restriction and is limited to one lane. It will remain at its current width upon reopening.
