The New York City Department of
Transportation will continue conducting
maintenance on the Grand Street
Bridge over Newtown Creek until Aug. 27.
The bridge will be closed between Sundays
and Fridays from Aug. 8 to Aug. 27 between
10 p.m. and 5 a.m. each night. The bridge will
also be fully closed during work hours.
Maintenance on the bridge started in
early July and was previously scheduled
for weekends.
The two-lane bridge connects Gardner
Avenue in Brooklyn and 47th Street in
Queens. Metropolitan Avenue will be used
as an alternative route while construction is
underway, according to DOT.
A DOT spokesperson said this is routine
bridge maintenance to keep the structure
in good condition due to its age, as the bridge
was built in 1903.
“Maintenance on the bridge is an ongoing
activity due to its advanced age,” the DOT
spokesperson said. “Work is frequently
scheduled for weekends when traffi c volumes
are the lightest and our work does not
interfere with local business and industry.” Photo by Alejandra O’Connell-Domenech
