Carle Place
Significant progress has been made on the LIRR Expansion Project from Floral Park to Hicksville, one of the region’s most noteworthy transportation projects. While the duration and intensity of work depends on the project element under construction, the 3rd Track Constructors team is phasing elements to reduce the amount of disruption in any given community at any given time.
During the month of August, you will see crews performing the following construction activities in Carle Place:
Completion dates are subject to change due to developments related to COVID-19
Meadowbrook Parkway Bridge Modification Project
- Following the work on the outside abutments, crews will switch to the center pier of the parkway to begin demo on the existing wingwall and reconstruction of the abutments
- Crews will remove the existing stone which will be reapplied to the walls in the finishing stages of the modification
- This phase of the project element iwill occur during the overnight shift
- During this activity, the traffic alignment will shift and all three lanes will be maintained on both northbound and southbound sides of the parkway
- 3TC will continue to coordinate with New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) throughout the modification of the bridge
