Assemblyman Mark Johns Announces The Reopening Of Route 250 At The Fairport Lift Bridge
NYSDOT crews previously closed the bridge for six weeks
March 5, 2013

Assemblyman Mark Johns (R,C,I-Webster) today announced that the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) has reopened the lift bridge on Route 250 over the Erie Canal in Fairport. NYSDOT had closed the bridge for repairs for the last six weeks.

“The completion of work on the Fairport Lift Bridge ensures a safer and more secure roadway for all motorists who pass through the area,” said Assemblyman Johns. “I want to thank everyone who traveled through the area for their patience while state DOT crews performed these necessary repairs, which enhance our community’s quality of life.”

NYSDOT repaired the deteriorating steel components on the lift bridge in Fairport. The lift bridge was built a century ago and the repairs will extend its service life. For real-time travel information on this and other NYSDOT projects, Johns encourages drivers to call 511, visit www.511NY.org and/or follow @511NY-Rochester on Twitter.
