Bridge reconstruction and repair work in Monroe County will begin soon, according to Gov. Kathy Hochul’s office. The project will replace two bridges that carry Interstate 590 in the Town of Brighton over State Route 31 (Monroe Avenue) and also rehabilitate the spans that carry I-590 over Allens Creek Road.
According to the governor’s office, the bridges were built in the mid-1960s and have reached the end of their service lives.
“New Yorkers deserve and demand quality roads and bridges that allow them to get where they need to go safely and we are making the investments necessary to ensure that they get them,” Hochul said in a statement. “This bridge improvement project will ensure continued travel on one of the Greater Rochester area’s busiest highways and give residents and commuters a few less headaches to contend with as they go about their busy days.”…
