Bronxville Parkway Closure Begins Today

People in Tuckahoe, Bronxville and Eastchester will have to deal with more traffic problems on the Bronx River Parkway this morning. Official will be limiting access to the vital parkway's northbound lanes, from the Sprain Brook Parkway in Yonkers to Exit 12, which is the Westchester County Center exit. The limited Bronx River Parkway access will happen from 9:30 a.m. until 3:30 p.m.

Here is a breakdown of all of the traffic changes that will be happening this morning and afternoon:

·   All northbound Bronx River Parkway traffic in Yonkers (six lane section of the parkway) will not have access to the four lane northbound Bronx River Parkway and will be detoured onto the Sprain Brook Parkway, to Central Park Avenue (NY 100) to White Plains.

·   Local traffic will have access to the northbound Bronx River Parkway at the following locations (between the Sprain Brook Parkway and Harney Road): Paxton Avenue, Elm Street, Scarsdale Road, Thompson Street and Leewood Drive.

·   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.

Officials say all of the Bronx River Parkway's southbound lanes will be open during the construction.
