Bridge Construction Will Close Thruway Lanes Week of Sept. 14

Tappan Zee Constructors, LLC (TZC) will be installing utilities to serve a temporary all-electronic tolling gantry in South Nyack near exit 10. The operation will involve phased construction and will require several nighttime and overnight lane and exit closings.

On Tuesday, Sept. 16, on the New York State Thruway (I-87/I-287) a single lane of the northbound exit 10 (South Nyack) off ramp will close from 9 p.m. to 4:30 a.m.

On Wednesday, Sept. 17, and Thursday, Sept. 18, the southbound entrance to the New York State Thruway (I-87/I-287) at exit 10 (South Nyack) will be closed from 9 p.m. to 4:30 a.m. Motorists are advised to follow the posted detour signs, which will direct them to Exit 11, located off Route 59 in Nyack.

On Friday, Sept. 19, on the New York State Thruway (I-87/I-287) a single lane of the northbound off ramp at exit 10 (South Nyack) will close from 9 p.m. to 4:30 a.m.

The steel frame gantry to support the all-electronic tolling equipment at the temporary location in South Nyack will be built next year, and will extend over the southbound lanes of the Thruway. All-electronic tolling technology for the Tappan Zee Bridge will be tested and implemented in 2016, for the duration of the New NY Bridge project.
