ALBANY, NY (07/07/2008; 1353)(readMedia)-- The New York State Thruway Authority announced that one exit lane at Interchange 34A (Rt. 481/East Syracuse) will be closed around the clock beginning at 6 a.m. on Tuesday, July 8, 2008 due to a reconstruction project. It is anticipated that the project will be completed by 5 p.m. on Thursday, July 17, 2008.

Motorists are advised that dedicated E-ZPass entry may be affected during peak travel times and as a result minor traffic delays may occur.
