Immediate Traffic Alert: Quaker Bridge
The Town of Cortlandt was just notified that the Quaker Bridge (42-66 Quaker Bridge Rd, Croton-On-Hudson, NY 10520) was "red flagged" and closed to vehicular traffic effective immediately, due to structural deficiencies. This bridge, built in 1894, was known to be structurally impaired and plans have been underway to replace it with a brand-new bridge. The bridge is owned and maintained by the County of Westchester. The County notified us today that the bridge is officially closed, as it was deemed unsafe. The County will formulate long-term plans for its replacement.

Relocate it to Black Rock Park in Croton,establish a trail connection to add the Village of Croton trailway from Truesdale Drive to Black Rock Park,then provide a walking bridge across the water at Black Rock up to the Aqueduct Trail system and Croton Dam Park. The Quaker Bridge is a historical landmark not to be discarded.
