NY's Move Over Law protects ALL VEHICLES on the shoulder, including work zones. On a 3-lane highway, moving over from the middle lane isn't just about giving space; it allows vehicles in the closest lane to the work zone or disabled vehicles the room to safely merge.
#MoveOver
The entire Thruway family is in mourning. Earlier today, one of our dedicated Thruway Authority colleagues lost his life when he was struck by a tractor trailer while setting up a work zone on I-90 near Henrietta. Another colleague was also hit and sustained serious injuries.
⚠️ TRAFFIC ALERT - ALL LANES BLOCKED - LEROY: All lanes are blocked on I-90 eastbound at exit 47 (LeRoy). All eastbound traffic must exit at exit 47. Drivers should plan for extended delays and may wish to seek alternate routes. Follow
