Plans are being finalized to commence needed maintenance work on the NY Route 237 bridge deck over the Erie Canal in the town of Murray. The work will be completed either this year or in 2022 depending on public safety factors and contractor resource availability. The bridge will need to be closed for six weeks as maintenance work takes place, at which point a detour will be established directing motorists to use Rt. 31, Rt. 387, and Rt. 104.
When the project begins, real-time traffic and construction updates can be found by visiting www.511ny.org.
“This maintenance work will help insure this bridge continues to safely serve our community for decades to come, and I am grateful to everybody at the Department of Transportation involved in making this much-needed project a reality,” said Assemblyman Steve Hawley (R,C,I-Batavia).
