New York State Department of Transportation is reviewing the intersection of River Road and Route 31, specifically the north-bound River Road lane designated for vehicles turning left onto Route 31.

According to Supervisor Barry Bullis, there have been numerous head-on collisions where vehicles turning left onto Route 31 have collided with vehicles traveling south on River Road. He said because of the lane-configuration, motorists in the northbound lane believe they have the right-of-way when turning left.

“The DOT recognized there is a problem and are doing something about it,” he said, adding the solution would be to assign a dedicated left arrow on the northbound River Road traffic light, and a timing adjustment.
