George Hoehmann, Clarkstown Supervisor was pleased to report that West Nyack Road officially reopened at 3:30 PM on Friday afternoon. The contractor has compacted the base and installed temporary barriers and sidewalks to allow for two-way traffic over the next six to eight weeks.

Progress This Week:

  • Continued utility and drainage work

  • Roadway preparation and temporary reopening

Looking Ahead:

  • Subcontractors for various utility companies will be installing wires within the underground conduit

  • Goal: Utility pole removal by May 15th

  • General contractor will continue drainage and infrastructure work near Western Highway

Please exercise caution when driving through the area. The road is temporarily narrower near the Eastern culvert. Once the utility poles are removed, a brief second closure will be necessary to drive the remaining piles and complete the culvert work.

In the meantime, we’re glad to have the road open again for two-way traffic and appreciate everyone’s patience and cooperation.
