Statement from New York State Department of Transportation Commissioner Joan McDonald

ALBANY, NY (02/28/2012)(readMedia)-- Since 2005, the New York State Department of Transportation has been planning for an intelligent transportation system communications network to monitor and manage traffic on commuter routes in Westchester County. The project includes a wireless communications system. Part of the communications system could entail communications towers. At this point in time, NYSDOT has decided not to install communications towers along the Saw Mill River Parkway.
