Title: Replacement of NY 9P Bridge Over Saratoga Lake
Post by: Dougtone on September 07, 2010, 08:38:38 PM
The NY 9P bridge across Saratoga Lake closed Tuesday morning as workers began dismantling the 87-year-old bridge.  Workers will peel up the deck first, then the spans, which will be floated to shore to be taken apart.  A new bridge will be built over the winter and is set to open next Memorial Day.
