State DOT is "designing a permanent solution to replace the temporary security measures on the Route 9A bikeway." Construction will begin in the summer and wrap up sometime in 2019.
A reader who bikes the greenway daily said there was no advance notice about the detour, which directs cyclists to a pedestrian path that's crowded with joggers and dog walkers. No signs indicate when the closure will end.
Several days after dropping long concrete barriers at dangerous angles across the Hudson River Greenway, New York State DOT is finally straightening them out to run parallel with the bike path.
State DOT said it would re-orient jersey barriers to make them parallel with the path, but three days later, many barriers are still straddling the greenway at dangerous angles.
