TRAVEL ALERT: On Saturday, January 13, at 8 p.m., the northbound lanes of the Thruway (I-87) spanning from exit 17 (Newburgh) to exit 18 (New Paltz) will undergo a full closure to all traffic for a minimum of 12 hours. This closure is essential to facilitate the safe removal of a damaged portion of the Brookside Road overpass in New Paltz, contingent on favorable weather conditions. During this operation, the Plattekill Service Area will also be temporarily closed.
Motorists are strongly advised to consider alternate routes or, if possible, defer travel in the area during these specified times. Your understanding and cooperation are greatly appreciated as safety measures are implemented for this necessary infrastructure work.
