Important update on the Main Street Bridge: We must confirm that the bridge will not be opening as planned. This is a significant setback, especially since we were told it would be open this week. The new date provided, “by the end of the month,” offers little reassurance. Frankly, we won’t be holding our breath, as previous timelines have not been met.
The Village of Brockport has been in contact with the New York State Department of Transportation (DOT) for answers. Despite our requests for details, DOT representatives have not been forthcoming regarding the cause of this latest delay. We are hearing rumors about technical issues, including the bridge not fully lowering, but we’ve received no official confirmation from the DOT. We are as frustrated as you are by this lack of transparency.
To escalate our concerns and demand clear answers, we have enlisted the support of Monroe County Legislator Jackie Smith, State Assemblyman Stephen Hawley, and State Senator Robert Ortt’s office. We are working with these elected officials to bring pressure to bear on the DOT and secure the information and action our community needs.
Arts Festival Adjusts
This delay directly impacts our Brockport Arts Festival this weekend. The bridge closure created major logistical challenges. However, I want to commend the Arts Festival Committee for their swift action and hard work. They’ve quickly reorganized, moving all booths, the music stage, and the car show to the south side of the canal, ensuring the festival’s success. Thank you for your quick “pivot” and dedication.
Our Commitment
The DOT’s lack of transparency is unacceptable. Our community deserves clear, accurate, and timely information to better address the impact of this prolonged closure.
Please continue to support our downtown businesses during this challenging time.
The Village Board and my office will keep demanding accountability. We will share any verified information as soon as we receive it.
Thank you for your patience and resilience.
Mayor Ben Reed
