The latest work along Post Road will include milling and resurfacing of the asphalt roadway and installation of reflective pavement markings on the roadway from the Scarsdale Village line to Mamaroneck Avenue. The Bond Act, which was approved by the County Board at its last meeting, will also fund the cost of the design, project management and construction.

“In recent years, the County Board has worked to improve the look and condition of the major roads to the downtown,” said Ryan, whose legislative district includes White Plains and Scarsdale. “We’ve ensured that roadway, street-scaping and landscaping are done in a way that beautifies White Plains. So when these jobs are complete, we’ll have nice looking streets that really say ‘welcome to our city’.”

Chairman Ryan said “similar capital infrastructure projects in White Plains, our “city in the park,” have included sidewalk and curb work along Post Road, as well as a grass median for Bryant Avenue substantial improvements to Mamaroneck Avenue and Old Mamaroneck Road. These road improvements are enhanced by outstanding community efforts such as those of the White Plains Beautification Foundation. The Foundation has been of help in designing road upgrade projects and by planting trees and gardens along the “gateways.”
