Summertime means one thing in New York...Roadwork.

A new project is expected to cause some major delays for commuters who take the Thruway in the Empire State.


Crews will be working on the I-90 westbound, putting down safety striping Today, tomorrow, and Thursday between 5 am and 6 pm. They will have the Thruway down to one lane going westbound between exits 58 (Silver Creek) and 57 (Hamburg). Expect to see moderate delays.

Crews will also have the right lane closed heading eastbound between the same tow exits today and tomorrow between 5 am and 6 pm for micro-surfacing.

They will have the left lane closed on Thursday between 5 am and 6 pm for Micro-surfacing as well.

You can expect moderate delays heading eastbound this week as well.

This is just one of the many projects happening along the I-90 in the month of August, but the good news is that all the other ones are happening between 7 pm and 7 am and they shouldn't cause any major delays.

Some of the other projects include; pavement striping, road repair, and general roadwork.

You can see a list of the roadwork being done along the Thruway HERE.

Other projects are happening all over as well including work along the 190, 290, and 33. See a complete list of roadwork projects HERE.
