Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Monday announced that temporary lane closures associated with road and bridge construction projects on New York state highways will not be permitted during the Thanksgiving weekend travel period.
Cuomo’s order continues from 6 a.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 22 through 6 a.m. on Monday, Nov. 27. Some work may continue behind permanent concrete barriers or for emergency repairs, Cuomo’s office said.
“This Thanksgiving weekend, thousands of families from across New York will travel near and far to visit loved ones and by suspending construction-related lane closures, we can help ensure they can get to their destinations as quickly as possible and without unnecessary delay,” Cuomo said in a news release.
