• Widen that road! State, county leaders push to widen Sunrise Hwy between Patchogue to Moriches (greaterlongisland.com) — Brookhaven drivers who battle Sunrise Highway gridlock between East Patchogue and Center Moriches may see relief if state and county leaders succeed in adding a third lane in both directions. Backed by Brookhaven Supervisor Dan Panico and emergency responders, the push aims to ease dangerous congestion near NYU Langone Hospital and support future growth, though funding and a timeline are still undecided.
