Infrastructure work to impact access to Eagle Point Elementary School

The following is an important message from Eagle Point Elementary School Principal Jared Fox:

This week the City of Albany notifed me that National Grid will be installing a new gas main on Western Avenue between Oxford Road and Tudor Road.

The work will run from 6:30 a.m.-3:30 p.m. Monday-Friday and will begin Aug. 5. It is slated to end Sept. 3., in advance of the first day of the 2024-25 school year on Sept. 6

The upgrade and subsequent road restoration will involve a lane closure on the west-bound lane of Western Avenue and will be in compliance with all New York State Department of Transportation specifications and notifications.

If you have any questions please email Gary Bohl, Director of Operations for the Department of General Services, at gbohl@albanyny.gov.
