The Village of Scarsdale’s utility contractor, Morano Brothers Corp., is in the process of replacing two box culverts on Catherine Road between Mamaroneck Road and Kelwynne Road.

A press release from the Village explains:

Catherine Road will be permanently closed between Quaker Center and Kelwynne Road for these critical stormwater improvements. The project, funded through a FEMA Hazard Mitigation Grant, is intended to improve stormwater capacity through the replacement of the existing culverts. This specific closure is for the southern culvert replacement, which is anticipated to continue through mid-August. Work is expected to take place from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Monday through Friday, weather permitting. Unless unforeseen circumstances arise, no weekend or nighttime work is expected. During construction, traffic will follow posted detours around Catherine Road.

Following the completion of the first culvert replacement, the second replacement will begin which will necessitate a closure of Catherine Road between Quaker Center and Mamaroneck Road. As this project progresses to the fall months, the Village will work closely with the Scarsdale School District to minimize impacts on drop-offs and pick-ups.
