The traveling public can expect minor delays as reduced speed, two way traffic is taking place when possible with one way traffic controlled by flagpersons when necessary.
Route 37, Port of Entry at Massena: Route 37 north of Massena at the international border crossing is now a two lane/two way highway with two traffic signals controlling vehicles headed to and from the border. Work to remove the old westbound lanes and bridges will continue and may require periodic lane closures on the traffic circle.

Route 131 From Grasse River Bridge to Robinson Tunnel Road: Paving will be taking place on this segment of roadway. Traffic will be controlled by a pilot vehicle and flag people and will experience minor delays. Work is expected to be completed early in the week.
Route 345 over Big Sucker Brook in Waddington: This is a bridge replacement project. The contract is just getting underway and motorists should be alert to construction activity in the area. Motorists traveling along State Route 345 in that area will encounter a detour around the Big Sucker Brook Bridge. The detour will facilitate the replacement of the existing structure and will utilize Linden Street, County Route 44, and Allison Road. The overall length of the detour is 3.3 miles and will be in place until further notice. The scheduled project completion is November 2008.
Route 345 over Grasse River, Madrid: The New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) has closed the State Route 345 Bridge over the Grasse River in Madrid, St. Lawrence County due to safety concerns. The structure was previously posted to a 15 ton weight limit and has been closed pending further engineering investigations. Preliminary investigations have shown that separations occurring in structural elements have reached a state where closure is warranted to ensure safety and preserve the structure. While the structure is closed, traffic will utilize the following designated detour: State Route 345 to County Route 14, which becomes County Route 34, to State Route 310, then returning to State Route 345. The detour length is approximately eight miles. The structure will remain open to pedestrian traffic but closed to vehicular traffic until further notice.
Countywide Work: Mowing, tree work, bridge work, crack sealing and pavement marking are being done on roadsides in various locations throughout St. Lawrence County during the Spring and Summer months. Motorists should exercise caution when approaching these operations and allow for minor delays during daytime work hours.
