Farley Bridge Ends!
As of 2pm on Thursday, April 30th, The James A Farley Bridge of Stony Point has been destroyed (on purpose).
While nothing yet replaces it, the New York State DOT will work steadily toward the erection of a new structure, which will cost over $11 million.
The new bridge will have a wider shoulder, turning lanes, and will lead into a safer, more efficient intersection on the North side.
In the meantime, various detours are available for navigating between the two ‘ends’ of Stony Point and into Tomkins Cove, as well as for those who are traveling through both towns via Route 9W. The particular detour you’ll take depends upon where you’re coming from… If you need guidance, send us a message.
- In related news, we’ll be bringing you information in the coming days on a promotion among some local businesses as a response to this event! In the meantime, sign up for email updates if you wish to be alerted when the promotion begins.
