Construction for the Crane Road Bridge Replacement Project on the Bronx River Parkway began June 4, 2012 and will continue for approximately 34 months with a project completion date of March 2015. The Crane Road Bridge is located immediately south of Exit 12 (Crane Road) on the Bronx River Parkway. The project will be completed in four separate stages of 10 months (Stage 1), 6 months (Stage 2), 6 months (Stage 3) and 12 months (Stage 4) in duration.  Throughout all stages, limited Parkway closures from Harney Road to Crane Road will occur weekdays from 10 AM to 2 PM. Detours will be posted accordingly. Limited night and weekend Parkway closures in one or both directions will also occur in all stages. In addition during Stages 2, 3 and 4 the northbound Crane Road Bridge exit will be closed to traffic to facilitate the construction activity. It is also anticipated that the southbound Crane Road exit of the Bronx River Parkway will be closed to traffic during Stages 3 and 4. The northbound entrance to the Parkway for Crane Road will remain open throughout the project. The contractor will install the appropriate signs along the Parkway relative to traffic changes. Additionally, Westchester County will notify the public of all project activities through press releases on their website. More information about the project and traffic detours can be found at the Westchester County website:
