McGrath Highway

Drivers might want to avoid the area around the Museum of Science for the next month or so

Contractors are scheduled to begin repairing the drawbridge by the museum (the Craigie bridge for those of you in the know) tomorrow, which means shutting the Boston-bound side for a month.

Eepers. Pedestrians and bicyclists will continue to be allowed to cross the bridge, but they have to promise not to snicker or even mutter "I told you so" at people in motorized vehicles.

Somerville has more info, including a link to live traffic cams you can use to route yourself accordingly and the fact that the bridge is a "twin double-leaf bascule bridge," which is, if nothing else, fun to say.

Local liquor store offers some advice for this weekend
