Steuben County Announces Closure and Reconstruction of Magee Road Bridge in Town of Hornellsville
Hornellsville, NY – Steuben County Commissioner of Public Works Eric Rose has announced the upcoming closure and reconstruction of the county bridge located on Magee Road over the Canisteo River in the Town of Hornellsville. Beginning March 16, 2026, the bridge between County Route 29 and Dineen Road will be closed to all through traffic for approximately 10 weeks to allow for a full bridge replacement project. The structure, identified as Bridge No. 17-28-01 (BIN 2217170), will be rebuilt with new concrete abutments and concrete deck beams to ensure long-term safety, reliability, and improved infrastructure for county residents. There will be no on-site detour during the closure. Motorists are advised to plan alternate routes in advance and allow additional travel time. Emergency services, local schools, and affected agencies have been notified.
“This project represents our continued commitment to maintaining and improving critical infrastructure throughout Steuben County,” said Commissioner Rose. “While we understand closures can be inconvenient, this investment will provide a safer and more durable crossing for residents and travelers for many years to come.” Steuben County appreciates the public’s patience and cooperation during construction.
