The State Department of Transportation said vehicles on the Simmonsville Avenue Bridge, over Simmons Brook in Johnston, are now restricted by weight. The bridge carries approximately 5,000 vehicles per day.

RIDOT will limit weight on the bridge to 11 tons for two axle vehicles, 15 tons for 3 axle vehicles, and 22 tons for 5 axle vehicles. Signs announcing the posting will be installed next week.
