Spencerport Village Traffic — go around
Work to repair the Union Street lift bridge over the Erie Canal in the village of Spencerport has closed the bridge to traffic in both directions since the beginning of April. As a result of the closing, detour signs have been posted along Spencerport Road and Ridge Road West to divert traffic around the Village of Spencerport.
Vehicles can cross the canal over the Martha Street bridge where signal lights have been installed to help traffic flow over the bridge. Traffic delays can be expected and during peak hours traffic along Martha Street and Canal Road does get congested, especially later in the afternoon.
Deck repair work is in progress on the north end of the bridge (week of April 9). Repair of the bridge deck is expected to be done by the end of April.
Spencerport Mayor Joyce Lobene said, “Work on bridge is moving along and should be done by the end of the month as planned. A little patience on our part will go a long way toward making a safe crossing for us over the canal in the future.”
