Amsterdam Road Re-Construction Update

Posted on May 26, 2021

 

Please be advised that the gas main break at the intersection of Amsterdam and Morris has been repaired and the intersection is once again open to traffic.

Construction has resumed on the concrete curbing project, driveway apron installation and asphalt paving on Amsterdam from north of Morris through the intersections of Ft Henry and Redwood. Unfortunately, this will require both intersections (Ft Henry and Redwood) to be closed to complete the curb construction. Residents should plan on following the detour that routes traffic to General Drive.

For residents that live on Amsterdam between Morris and Redwood we request you park on Glengarry, Redwood or Morris. Please DO NOT park on Ft Henry within 200’ of Amsterdam (this area has been posted as “No Parking”).

Weather permitting, the contractor is projecting the curb and the base asphalt pavement to be completed by Wednesday, June 2nd at which time the intersections of Amsterdam/Ft Henry and Amsterdam/Redwood will be re-opened to traffic. Work to complete driveway aprons, yard restoration and final asphalt surface will continue in this area until finished.

We know this construction project has been a major headache for residents and those who travel in and around this part of town but we are very close to wrapping up this very important and major infrastructure improvement project. We ask for your continued patience for a few more weeks.
