Stillwater, NY – The National Park Service will be undertaking critical road repairs to address failing pavement and a slumping and drainage issue that is undermining a portion of the Entrance Road, which connects NYS Route 4 and NYS Route 32. This investment in the park infrastructure will prolong the life of park assets and allow us to serve the public for years to come.

Starting on Monday, April 12, 2021, a section of the Entrance Road will be closed, including weekends, to all traffic including vehicles, bicycles, and pedestrians, from the Entrance Road intersection at the Visitor Center parking area to Lohnes Road. This phase of the project is expected to be completed on Wednesday, May 12, 2021. Additional closures will take place Monday-Friday from Wednesday, May 12 through Monday, May 31, 2021; the road will be open on weekends during the second phase of work. During the closure a detour will be established utilizing Lohnes Road and NYS Route 32 to reconnect to the Park Visitor Center and parking area.
