ALRA Engineers, P.C. is thrilled to announce that the brand-new Meadow Hill Road Bridge over I-87 is officially OPEN as of this past Friday, June 12, 2026 — just one year after its closure for full replacement on June 13, 2025.

As the prime consultant to the New York State Thruway Authority, our team played a key role in bringing this major infrastructure upgrade to life. The project delivered a completely reimagined bridge: wider, safer, higher, and built for the future, complete with expanded shoulders, a dedicated pedestrian sidewalk, protective fencing, and improved roadway approaches.

From overseeing pile installation and utility relocations to managing paving, staging, ACM abatement, and Work Zone Traffic Control, ALRA ensured every detail met the highest standards. We’re excited to see this vital community link reopened — stronger, safer, and ready to serve Orange County for decades ahead.
