Bridge and street closures planned for Bridgewater during Beaver County Boom; shuttles will run
Summary
Officials said Bridgewater streets and the Monaca Rochester Bridge will be closed for the Beaver County Boom fireworks, with closures running roughly 8 a.m. Saturday to 8 a.m. Sunday; shuttle services and one-way toll-bridge routing will be available to attendees.
Beaver County officials told the work session that Bridgewater streets will be closed for the Beaver County Boom event beginning at 8:00 a.m. Saturday through approximately 8:00 a.m. Sunday for fireworks operations, and that the Monaca Rochester Bridge will be closed while fireworks are launched from its span.
Garin and other officials advised attendees to use county-provided shuttle services from the courthouse Park-and-Ride and noted that with the Monaca Rochester Bridge closed, one-way traffic will be routed across the toll bridge. Event organizers and tourism staff encouraged attendance, listing entertainment throughout the day, a 3:00 p.m. start for daytime events and fireworks at 9:45 p.m.
Officials emphasized checking the county tourism website or social media for updates and suggested shuttle service to ease traffic impacts on Bridgewater and surrounding crossings.
Next steps: the county will post closure details and shuttle information on the tourism site and social media; attendees should plan for travel adjustments during closure hours.
