Road crews plan to close one lane in both directions in Dutchess County between Pleasant Valley and the town of Clinton beginning Monday, June 13, through Friday, Oct. 28, according to the Department of Transportation.

Drivers will encounter the closures between Route 44 (Exit 54) in Pleasant Valley and Route 115 (Exit 58) in Clinton.

The closures will allow workers to replace drainage structures, DOT said.

Transportation officials urged drivers to slow down through the stretch and reminded motorists that fines are doubled for speeding in a work zone.
