Daily Roadwork

Our employees are working on County roads every day. During this work, traffic lanes may be narrowed or eliminated, and some traffic congestion may result. In unusual cases, traffic may be detoured, and we may recommend that you use alternate routes.

Lane Closures, Detours, and Road Striping

Please drive SLOWLY and SAFELY through construction zones.
Be patient. Pay attention to flaggers and traffic signs.

Do not drive around road striping trucks while they are painting. If you see cones covering the center lines or edge lines on the road, those lines have recently been painted and are still wet. Do not drive over them.

All of these highway and bridge projects are necessary. We are trying to complete them as quickly, and with as little impact to the traffic, as possible. We very much appreciate your patience and understanding.

Telephone our Headquarters Office, (518) 765-2055, for more details regarding any of the below projects, or for information regarding projects scheduled for construction in the future.
