New York State Department of Transportation Announces Completion of $4.3 Million Project to Replace State Route 46 Bridge Over Oneida Creek
Rome, NY – December 16, 2024 – The New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) today announced the completion of a $4.3 million project to replace the State Route 46 bridge over Oneida Creek in the Town of Verona, Oneida County.
The original bridge, built in 1965, had reached the end of its useful life and was in need of replacement. The new bridge is wider and longer than the old one, providing improved safety and traffic flow for motorists.
The project included the following improvements:
- Replacement of the existing bridge with a new, wider, and longer bridge
- Construction of new bridge approaches
- Installation of new guiderails and pavement markings
- Improvements to drainage and erosion control
The project was funded by the New York State Department of Transportation and the Federal Highway Administration. Construction began in весной of 2023 and was completed on schedule.
“This project is a major investment in the safety and infrastructure of our community,” said Oneida County Executive Anthony J. Picente Jr. “The new bridge will improve traffic flow and make it safer for motorists to cross Oneida Creek.”
“The NYSDOT is committed to improving the transportation infrastructure in Oneida County,” said NYSDOT Regional Director Joseph A. Insenga. “This project will provide a safer and more efficient crossing for motorists and pedestrians alike.”
