Mariners are advised that repair activities will occur on the Gillett Road Bridge (E-173) over the Erie Canal from now through the end of the navigation season. Initially most activities will occur from the top of the bridge deck so it is anticipated that there will be minimal impact on vessel traffic.
Mariners should reduce speed, stop all forward motion and proceed at a “No-Wake” speed when transiting this area.
A map showing the affected area can be found at www.canals.ny.gov/navinfo/charts/nyscce14.jpg.
Features along the western portion of the Erie Canal are listed by mileage at www.canals.ny.gov/navinfo/navinfo.cgi?waterway=eriewestern.
