Construction Along Route 17 May Cause Delays All Summer

By Y.M. Lowy

Two major projects on Route 17 in Orange County may slow travel to Sullivan County over the summer.

A nighttime paving project from the Sullivan County line to just past Exit 119 on Route 302 is set to begin soon and run through the fall. At the same time, work on the Exit 122 interchange is expected to last into late next year.

Drivers heading upstate should expect some delays, especially in the evenings.
