The Chestnut Street bridge over the Schuylkill is closing next week, and it won't be open to traffic again for a year.

The bridge needs repairs, including repairing and repainting the steel superstructure and replacing the deck. The structure also will be upgraded with a bike lane, wider sidewalks, and decorative railings.
