· Local northbound parkway traffic will be detoured at Harney Road to Scarsdale Avenue and East Parkway and re-entering the northbound parkway at Crane Road.  

· Northbound parkway will be open to traffic at Crane Road and all points north.

Crews anticipate that the northbound parkway will be open midday on Thursday, October 17. The southbound parkway will be open. The northbound closures are necessary to continue forming and pouring concrete for the west abutment as part of the Crane Road Bridge Replacement Project on the Bronx River Parkway.  

Motorists are advised to seek alternate routes. Numerous variable message signs are being used to alert motorists of the upcoming closures. The project began in the summer of 2012 and will take three years to complete.
