Specialist engineers have carried out a detailed inspection of a defect on the Forth Road Bridge, which has sparked lengthy delays for motorists.
The southbound carriageway of the bridge was closed on Tuesday evening as a safety precaution.
That led to significant disruption on the M90 and Kincardine Bridge on Wednesday morning.
Bridge operators Amey said it was possible the closure could continue until the evening rush hour.
Decisions on whether any further restrictions are required will be based on the results of the safety inspection. Engineers are now meeting to discuss the findings of that investigation.
A contraflow is currently operating on the northbound carriageway.
