As previously reported by News Center 7, the East Main Street bridge in Trotwood closed Tuesday for repairs.

The closure is so crews can repave the surface and work on the bridge’s structure.

Some drivers are frustrated but know the work is needed.

“I got to go all the way around but at the same time, the bridge does need to get fixed,” said Gregory Clayborn.

We will update this story.
