Ithaca Minute – Stewart Ave bridge, Hudson Street, Bordoni Ride


Listen Later

Here’s the Ithaca Minute for August 15th!

The Stewart Avenue bridge is closed for nearly three months for a City of Ithaca project to repaint and repair the structure, but the bridge will reopen this weekend and next, says an Ithaca bridge systems engineer.

For Cornell’s opening weekend, when new students arrive on campus, the bridge will be opened to two-way traffic this Friday through Sunday, August 18th-20th. It will be open for the inauguration of Cornell’s new president next weekend, as well. Throughout the closure, which is scheduled until October 13th, Ithaca officials say pedestrian and bicycle access will be maintained across the bridge, but vehicular traffic has to detour.

On South Hill, the City of Ithaca hopes to reopen Hudson Street later this month after delays caused by rain, or at least forecast rain, every week. They started setting curb on Pennsylvania Avenue on Monday and hope to pave early next week so they can reopen Hudson Street by Ithaca College’s new student move-in weekend.

And the 6th annual Corporal Christopher Bordoni Memorial Ride raised about $5,500 this weekend, according to Gary Allen of Allegiance LEMC New York.
