Maintenance work on Jacksonville’s Mathews Bridge means lane closures and detours this weekend.

The Florida Department of Transportation will close both eastbound lanes from 6 p.m. Friday until 6 a.m. Sunday.  That traffic will be detoured to the Hart Bridge.

Drivers heading downtown on the Mathews Bridge this weekend will encounter a traffic bottleneck caused by closure of the inside westbound lane.

FDOT says boaters won’t be affected by the maintenance work.
