To minimize impact of a closed BQE, DOT is bringing out guards to direct traffic and signage to show you the detours
OCTOBER 14: Road work begins on the Brooklyn Queens Expressway, closing the roadway and creating a traffic jam on the crowded expressway and the surrounding streets in Brooklyn. Drivers this weekend will notice the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway is closed between the Atlantic Avenue entrance ramp and the Manhattan Bridge exit ramp in the Queens-bound direction.
During the same timeframe, the Staten Island-bound BQE will be reduced to one lane of traffic between Sands Street and Atlantic Avenue. "We are going to be the first city that starting in November 8th," said Ydanis Rodriguez DOT Commissioner, "will be able to give fines for drivers who are using overweight trucks in the area."
