Expect late-night stoppages on Thruway near Exit 16 this week

September
16

Traffic on the Thruway near the Exit 16 Woodbury toll barrier will be stopped in both directions this week to remove overhead signs.

The work is being done as part of a project to build highway speed E-ZPass toll lanes.

The overhead signs scheduled to be removed are located on the northbound Thruway, at mileposts 44.3 and 44.8, just south of the toll barrier and on the southbound Thruway at milepost 45.3, just north of the tolls.

Traffic stoppages are scheduled to occur after 11 p.m. tomorrow, Thursday and Friday, weather permitting.

They are expected to last no longer than 10 minutes each, as the sign panels, support trusses, and posts are removed, the state Thruway Authority said.
