Bronx River Parkway Lane Closures and Popham Road Bridge Demolition

One southbound lane of the Bronx River Parkway between Crane Road (Exit 12) and Ardsley Road (Exit 11) will be closed from Monday July 16 through Friday July 20 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Crews will close either the southbound right or left lane to facilitate their work. Delays are expected and drivers are advised to take alternate routes. These closures are necessary for work to progress as part of the Crane Road Bridge Replacement Project on the Bronx River Parkway. The project began last month and will take three years to complete.

The demolition of the old Popham Road Bridge will continue at night until Friday July 20th. Crews are in the process of demolishing the concrete and asphalt bridge deck and will remove the steel on the night of July 20th when the bridge will be closed. After that, work will begin on the removal of the east and west abutments to be completed by the second week of August. The Village estimates that work on the Popham Raod Bridge will continue at night for the next four to five weeks and apologizes for the noise.

Metro North requires the work to be done at night when trains are out of service.
