State won’t build new ramps on Deegan

Pummeled by public outcry against a plan to extend the off-ramps on the Major Deegan Expressway, the State Department of Transportation has abandoned the project.

Much-needed repairs will be made to the aging roadway over Mott Haven, but the plan to extend the highway’s exit ramps in order to calm the traffic that backs up as cars merge onto Exterior Street is on hold indefinitely, said DOT spokesman Adam Levine.

The city's blueprint for Mott Haven's future will take precedence over the traffic plan, Stephanie Rabins reports in the Mott Haven Herald. You heard it hear first.
