The West State Street (State Route 14) bridge in Salem has been closed for deck replacement.

The Ohio Department of Transportation says that traffic is now being detoured for a total of 140 days.

Beginning at the intersection of U.S. Route 62, State Route 173, and State Route 45 west of Salem, traffic is being detoured north on U.S. 62 to State Route 165 east to State Route 46 south back to State Route 14. The detour from the opposite direction is in reverse.

ODOT anticipates that the road will be closed and traffic will be detoured until late November.

The project is estimated to be completed in June 2016.

Marucci & Gaffney Excavating Co. of Youngstown is the contractor on the $3 million project
