Shared-Path Traffic Studies Next Week in South Nyack

South Nyack Mayor Bonnie Christian gave residents a heads-up this morning into upcoming traffic studies for the shared-use path part of the new bridge over the Tappan Zee.

As part of the ongoing investigation into alternative parking locations for the New NY Bridge shared-use bike pedestrian path, engineers will be doing traffic surveys here in our village over the next week. At times, you may see traffic engineers near the Thruway entrance ramp behind Village Hall, on South Franklin Street near the Thruway overpass, and on South Broadway near its intersection with Clinton Avenue. The traffic surveys will be done during the morning and evening rush hours beginning this Thursday afternoon but are subject to changes in the weather. We support the Thruway Authority team in doing these surveys to help gather more information as we continue discussing solutions for the shared use path that will work for our residents, our village and all the parties involved.
