After extensive advocacy efforts from our Village, with the support of our state elected officials, we are pleased to provide another update on the paving of Boston Post Road (Route 1). New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) has awarded the contract for paving Boston Post Road for the length of the Village of Pelham Manor. The project will take from the New York City line to the City of New Rochelle line. As a reminder, the NYSDOT project ID number is 881409, which residents can use to track project status online. While this is an exciting initiative to be received by our Village, we ask for residents continued patience throughout the project. You have likely noticed the extensive utility work being conducted by ConEdison. A significant portion of this work has been in anticipation of the NYSDOT paving project. There is more for ConEdison to do. Beginning Monday, July 17, ConEdison will be moving to the intersection of Boston Post Road and Pelhamdale Avenue. Due to safety concerns, this work must be completed at night. Hours of operation will be from 8:00pm to 6:00am. Upon completing the intersection, ConEdison will be continuing down Pelhamdale Avenue in the Eastern direction. To avoid further disturbance, the work in front of the shopping center will also be done at night. Once past the shopping center, work will resume during daytime hours.

It is imperative any necessary utility work is done in advance of the NYSDOT paving project. NYSDOT is hopeful to begin their preparatory efforts in roughly four weeks. Their efforts must also be conducted at night. We will remain in communication on this project as a start date is confirmed.
