Saw Mill Parkway Bridge Rebuild in Spring, Summer 2016

The New York State Department of Transportation plans to fully reconstruct two bridges on the Saw Mill River Parkway in Pleasantville -- starting in April.

The structures are located under historic arch bridges at Bedford Road and Pleasantville Road and over the Saw Mill River. The historic arch bridges will not be affected by the reconstruction, DOT officials said.

What will be affected: motorists on the busy commuter route between New York City and the northeastern Westchester-Brewster corridor.

• Spring Detour: April 3rd – July 1st (2016), 9pm—6am (Sunday night—Thursday night).SMRP closed entirely and traffic detoured onto Grant Street/Marble Avenue Corridor.
• Summer Detour: 21 consecutive days occurring between July 10th and August 26th (2016), 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Traffic on the SMRP reduced to one lane in each direction, shifting into the two northbound lanes.

A Public Information Meeting will be held on March 7 in the Pleasantville Village Hall Board Room at 80 Wheeler Ave. to provide more information related to this project. The meeting starts at 7 p.m.

ECCO III Enterprises, Inc. is the contractor.
