TULLY, N.Y. — New York Governor Andrew M. Cuomo today announced the completion of an $8 million project to replace the northbound and southbound bridges carrying Interstate 81 over Route 80 in the town of Tully in Onondaga County.
The separate northbound and southbound bridges were completely replaced. Both bridges are now wider, and have two 12-foot lanes, a 6-foot left shoulder, and a 10-foot right shoulder. Pre-cast concrete panels were used to speed construction, the governor’s office said in a news release. Minor upgrades were also made to Route 80, including construction of sidewalks in each direction.
A temporary bridge was built in the median to carry traffic during construction in order to minimize travel impacts, the release stated.
