Route 56 is the main road connecting the Canton-Potsdam area to Tupper Lake.
It was closed in both directions on Sunday and is expected to remain closed to all traffic for nearly four weeks, until March 29.
An alternative route connecting Canton to Tupper Lake on Route 27 through Degrasse adds about 15 minutes to the drive.
