The New York State Department of Transportation today announced that State Route 21 in the Town of Fremont has been reduced to one lane, at a location approximately one mile north of the Hamlet of Haskinsville. The lane closure is necessary to facilitate the replacement of a storm damaged culvert and perform drainage repairs on State Route 21. Work is anticipated to last approximately one week.
Traffic will be maintained with a one lane, two-way alternating flagging operation. The public should expect delays.
It is imperative that motorists remember to drive carefully through the many highway and bridge construction zones they will encounter this season.
Motorists are reminded that fines are doubled for speeding in a work zone. In accordance with the Work Zone Safety Act of 2005, convictions of two or more speeding violations in a work zone could result in the suspension of an individual’s driver license.
