The New York State Thruway Authority today announced pavement repairs will take place on I-95 southbound beginning at 9 a.m. on Thursday, November 12, 2009 and Friday, November 13, 2009, weather permitting.

On Thursday, November 12 and Friday, November 13, from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m., two southbound lanes will be closed on I-95 just south of Exits18A and 18B in Mamaroneck, weather permitting. 

Also, on Friday, November 13, both the northbound and southbound entry ramps from Mamaroneck Avenue to I-95 southbound will be closed alternately from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m.  During the ramp closures, motorists destined for I-95 southbound are advised to follow the posted detour signs.

During these closures motorists may experience heavy delays and are advised to consider alternative routes. Heavy delays means motorists travel time could be delayed 20 minutes or more over normal time.

The Authority will activate its Dynamic Message Signs (DMS) and Highway Advisory Radio (HAR) 530 AM to advise motorists of the closures.

The Thruway Authority appreciates motorists’ patience while this pavement repair work takes place.
