Henry Hudson Parkway Closed for Overnight Paving Work Starting Tonight

Both directions of the Henry Hudson Parkway will be closed in sections from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m., beginning tonight, May 18, according to the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT).

The closures are part of a $4 million investment to pave the parkway in both directions from Kappock Street to the Westchester County line. Work began in the northbound direction April 20, and is now complete. Work in the southbound direction will begin tonight.

Throughout the project, full closures will take place at night from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m., as stated above. Intermittent single lane closures during off–peak, daytime hours also will occur.

In April, the northbound Henry Hudson Parkway was fully closed in sections from Kappock Street to 232nd Street during nighttime hours, as part of Stage 1. Over the course of approximately one month, the entire northbound roadway was milled and paved, one section at a time. Starting tonight, Stage 2 work will begin in the southbound direction, starting at the Westchester County line. The Henry Hudson Parkway paving project is expected to be completed by the end of June.

Motorists are reminded that fines are doubled for speeding in a work zone. In accordance with the Work Zone Safety Act of 2005, convictions of two or more speeding violations in a work zone could result in the suspension of an individual’s driver license. It is imperative that motorists drive carefully through this construction zone, for their own safety and the safety of workers.
