CALLICOON – The New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) is advising motorists of a full closure of the Callicoon Bridge (Interstate Bridge #7) which spans the Delaware River between Bridge Street in the hamlet of Callicoon, Sullivan County, and State Route 1016 in Damascus Township, Pennsylvania. 

The closure is scheduled for Tuesday, May 19, weather permitting, with backup dates tentatively scheduled for May 27 or May 28.

 The temporary closure is needed to pour concrete on two newly constructed bridge spans as part of a $17.8 million project that is scheduled for completion in November 2027. The bridge is expected to reopen within 24 hours after the work is finished. Pedestrian and bicycle access will remain open during the closure.

 Motorists, including commercial and freight traffic, should follow detours and messaging displayed on NYSDOT signs.
