The Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) has informed the City that the Gillis Drawbridge has reopened to marine traffic as of August 31, 2023 at 3:30pm. The bridge had been closed to boat traffic since August 26th due to a motor issue. We are happy to announce the bridge is now in service and hope boaters get to enjoy a beautiful weekend here in Newburyport.
