Legislator Pierce joins Harckham, State, and other Local Officials Announce Start of $6.5 Million Route 35 Repaving Project in Towns of Lewisboro and Bedford
New York State Senator Pete Harckham and Assemblymember Chris Burdick announced today that a $6.5 million resurfacing and paving project has started on Route 35 between Katonah and South Salem.
Joining the two state legislators for the announcement at the Lewisboro Town House in South Salem were Lewisboro Town Supervisor Tony Gonçalves, Bedford Town Supervisor Ellen Calves, Westchester County Legislator Erika Pierce and New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) Region 8 Deputy Director Nikhil Natarajan.
Westchester County Legislator Erika Pierce said
“Improving the horrible condition of Route 35 was a priority for me when I first entered office in 2022. The issues I then documented, including road and shoulder disrepair and impacts on public safety, bicycle riders, ambulances and school buses, are worse today than when I first gathered testimony to advocate for those needed repairs. I am thrilled that the repavement work is about to start. Thank you to my New York State colleagues for making certain this critical project is getting done.”
