I-84W reopens ahead of schedule at CT/NY border

Interstate 84 westbound has reopened with a new bridge and smooth surface.  To see a timelapse video of the construction, click here.  The bridges that carry the highway over Dingle Ridge Road in Putnam County are being replaced. 

 

 

Individual lanes have been shut down by the Connecticut/New York border as construction crews have built the replacement bridges along side the current structures.

 

New York Department of Transportation Communications Director Beau Duffy says the innovative type of construction allows for a less expensive project to be completed in less time with less of an interruption for drivers.  The old bridge was demolished and the new structure raised about 2 feet to be slid into place.

 

 

 

The eastbound side of Interstate 84 will be closed October 19-20 so the same process can be completed.

 

The $10.5 million dollar project is being completed with state and federal funding.  To see more photos from the construction, visit the New York DOT site.
