Many Long Island roadways are scheduled to undergo resurfacing this year.  Governor Cuomo announced that more than $100 million will be spent to repair roads in poor condition from the harsh winter.  These projects will provide relief and improve the safety of Long Island drivers who travel on rough roads.

After a rough winter, this project will help drivers who have damaged their tires, shocks and alignment while dodging potholes.  The funding is designed to provide Long Islanders with safe, reliable transportation routes.  The resurfacing projects will remove the worn top layer of pavement, repair the base concrete, improve drainage, and install a new asphalt riding surface.  The repairs also include replacing traffic signal detectors and pavement markings.  The majority of this work will be completed during off-peak and night-time hours. 

The following roadways will be resurfaced this fall:

• LIE between exits 37 and 46
• Northern State Parkway (NSP) between the Wantagh State Parkway (WSP) and the LIE
• Meadowbrook State Parkway between Glenn Curtis Boulevard and the NSP in the Town of Hempstead
• NY Route 24/Hempstead Turnpike between the MSP and NY Route 110
• NY Route 25A between the Nassau/Suffolk border and Bread and Cheese Hollow Road
• NY Route 24/Flanders Road between County Roads 104/63 and Bellows Pond Road
• NY Route 25A between NY Route 111 and Edgewood Avenue
• NY Route 25 between Kings Park Road and NY Route 111
• Simeon Woods Road between the LIE and Kings Highway
• NY Route 25/Jericho Turnpike between NY Routes 106/107 and Robbins Lane
• NY Route 25/Jericho Turnpike between Brush Hollow Road and Jericho Quadrangle East
•  NY Route 878/Nassau Expressway between Burnside Avenue and Rockaway Turnpike

Although it’s finally spring, Long Island roads are still littered with potholes.  It has been an unusually rough winter.  Fortunately, drivers will finally find some relief.  Local governments on Long Island will get almost $4 million in new state aid to fix the roadways this year.

This aid is on top of the $75 million budget increase made to the Consolidated Highway Improvement Program (CHIPS) last year.  The money will be distributed throughout Nassau and Suffolk Counties and their localities.

Governor Andrew Cuomo expressed concern regarding the damage to many local roads and bridges.  He declared a state of emergency on 8 separate occasions this winter.  Although the money will be used to fix the current road situation, Cuomo hopes that it can also be used to help brace the roadway surface for future storms.
