Portion of Southern State To Close Overnight In Merrick/Bellmore
Lanes of the eastbound roadway will be closed for work on Thursday, July 11.
A portion of the Southern State Parkway that runs between North Merrick and North Bellmore is slated to close tomorrow night.
Two eastbound lanes of the Southern State will be closed on July 11 between exit 24 (Merrick Avenue) and exit 25 (Newbridge Road). The closure will run from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m. the next morning.
The road is only closing for one night to give work crews a safe space to perform maintenance to overhead signs, repair a damaged guide rail and trim trees. Electronic variable message signs will give drivers additional information.
