Last August, Manhattan-bound lanes on the Brooklyn Bridge began closing overnight. But get ready to experience that nightmare all over again! The DOT writes, "Beginning on April 4, 2011 and continuing until the project completion in 2014, Manhattan-bound traffic on the Brooklyn Bridge may be detoured to the Manhattan Bridge as needed to accommodate construction. This will occur only during overnight hours and on some weekends."

The Manhattan-bound lanes will be closed Sunday to Friday from 11:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m.
Saturday from 12:01 a.m. to 7:00 a.m., and Sunday morning from 12:01 a.m. to 9:00 a.m.. They also write, "On some weekends, the bridge will be entirely closed to Manhattan-bound traffic. When this happens, Manhattan-bound traffic will be detoured beginning at 12:01 am Saturday through to 5:00 am Monday, 53 consecutive hours." Surprisingly, all these closures don't seem to be pissing many people off. Robert Perris of Community Board 2 told Brooklyn Paper, “We haven’t gotten any complaints."
