Partial Closures on Bronx River Parkway Northbound Nov. 17-18

Portions of the Bronx River Parkway northbound will be closed for road paving tomorrow, Nov. 17, and Wednesday in Eastchester, Greenburgh, Scarsdale and White Plains, according to the Westchester County Department of Transportation.

The closures are scheduled for between 9:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m., and will stretch along the Bronx River Parkway from the Sprain Brook Parkway and the Westchester County Center in White Plains, weather permitting. Motorists are urged to seek alternative routes if possible.

As a result, there will be no access from the six lane portion of the northbound Bronx River Parkway to the four lane portion of the northbound Bronx River Parkway at the Sprain Brook Parkway, officials said.

All traffic will be diverted onto the Sprain Brook Parkway and then Central Park Avenue (NY 100) to White Plains.

Local traffic will be accessible between the Sprain Brook Parkway and Harney Road at all times:

• Entrances from Paxton Ave, Elm Street, Scarsdale Road, Thompson Street and Leewood Drive will be open.
• All northbound traffic will be diverted at Harney Road to Scarsdale Avenue and East Parkway, re-entering the northbound parkway at Crane Road.

The northbound Bronx River Parkway will be open to traffic at Crane Road and all points north.

Numerous message signs will be used to alert motorists of the upcoming closures.
