Lane Closures: Busy Bridge Over I-95 To Be Affected

Traffic on a stretch of Interstate 95 that is currently in a major three-year construction project will soon be slowed by a series of lane closures in Westchester. 

The North Avenue bridge running over I-95 in New Rochelle will be reduced to only one lane on both Friday, July 14, and Monday, July 17, according to the New York Thruway Authority. 

The lane closures will span from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on both days, officials said, adding that the closures will facilitate bridge construction.

The lane affected by the closure is shown with the red "X" marks in this graphic released by the Thruway Authority.

New Rochelle Police will be located at the scene to direct traffic through the work zone. 

The North Avenue bridge is set to be replaced over the length of a three-year $31.8 million project, which is expected to be completed by 2025. The new bridge will be wider, improve traffic flow, and have a higher vertical clearance over I-95.
