The Telegraph Road Bridge, in Murray, and the Bates Road Bridge, in Medina, have both re-opened to vehicular traffic as of Saturday, June 27.
The Telegraph Road Bridge has been closed since August 5, 2019, for steel repairs under D263668 – Rehabilitation of 7 Bridges over the Erie Canal in Orleans County. Minor final touches are being completed by the construction crew, but traffic will be able to flow through.
The Bates Road Bridge has been closed since November 8, 2019, also for steel repairs. The bridge will have open traffic flow while the construction crew installs sidewalk grating.
“The coordination and dedication of those workers to restore the bridges for modern traffic is both commendable and admirable,” Assemblyman Steve Hawley said. “I am just as excited as the next person to finally have this construction done and have these roadways open to us again.”
