Drivers near Fall Creek should brace for months of detours — the Stewart Avenue Bridge will shut down for major repairs starting May 4, according to The Ithaca Voice.
Crews already started prep work, and the closure is expected to last until mid-November. The project will replace aging structural parts and upgrade the deck, sidewalks, and safety features.
Officials mapped out a 1.57-mile detour and urge drivers to plan ahead. The project, backed by state and federal funding, aims to extend the bridge’s lifespan and improve safety.
