I-684 ramp construction causing delays on Route 100 in Somers

I-684 ramp construction causing delays on Route 100 in Somers

By TERENCE CORCORAN - THE JOURNAL NEWS

SOMERS - Rush-hour traffic has increased significantly today on Route 100, from Route 138 south to Route 35, due to the closure of an entrance ramp to Interstate 684 in Goldens Bridge.
The ramp, which carries drivers to the southbound lane of I-684 from Route 138 in Goldens Bridge, will be closed for the next several weeks due to a construction project.
Drivers are being encouraged to take Route 22 south to Route 35, where they can then pick up I-684 south and the southbound Saw Mill River Parkway.
But many drivers have decided to take Route 100 south through Somers. Consequently, the increased traffic is causing delays, state police said today.
Motorists looking to avoid slowdowns on Route 100 can access I-684 south via Route 116 in Purdys or Hardscrabble Road in Croton Falls, troopers advise.
