Poughkeepsie ... The Dutchess County Department of Public Works (DPW) has announced work will begin on or about Monday, July 7th to replace a bridge on Noxon Road over the Jackson Creek, near Rymph Road, in the Town of Lagrange. Noxon Road will be closed from the Taconic State Parkway to Rymph Road with a detour posted along Stringham Road, State Route 55, Velie Road, and Todd Hill Road. View a map of the detour.
Project work will include replacing the existing structure with a new, wider bridge to incorporate 4-foot shoulders and the installation of new guiderails. Access to driveways in the vicinity, as well as the exit from the northbound Taconic State Parkway (westbound turns only), will be maintained. The project is anticipated to be completed with the roadway re-opened to traffic, by the end of 2025.
This section of Noxon Road averages approximately 4,600 vehicles per day.
Motorists are advised to plan for additional time and to exercise extra caution near the construction site and on the detour, obey the posted speed limits, and traffic advisory signs and the directions from flaggers near the work zone to ensure the safety of workers and other motorists.
