MOBILITY IMPROVEMENT ON EB LIE B/W CVE & SPRINGFIELD BLVD & REPLACEMENT OF OCEANIA ST. BR

under construction

The Eastbound Long Island Expressway between the entrance ramps from the Clearview Expressway & the exit ramp to Springfield Boulevard experience heavy congestion during peak periods. This congestion is exacerbated by the high volume of truck traffic, both on the entrance ramps from the Clearview Expressway & on the Eastbound Long Island Expressway mainline. The existing acceleration and deceleration lanes at Clearview Expressway, Oceania Street, Bell Boulevard & Springfield Boulevard do not provide sufficient distance to accommodate the vehicles which enter & exit the Long Island Expressway. The project will construct an auxiliary lane to connect the entrance ramp from the Clearview with the Exit ramp to Springfield Boulevard. The provision of a continuous lane for entering and exiting traffic will alleviate congestion and reduce delays.
