But not the report anyone wants to hear. As I learned on April 4th, the project is delayed yet again—mid to late June. Some of the reasons: worker fatigue from continuing 6-day work weeks and not enough workers to rotate out, some weather delays, a problematic bearing, and a new manager at Crane Hogan following the tragic death on March 18th of the company’s project manager. The DOT noted that O’Connell Electric was adding another crew, and that the pressure on Crane Hogan is the dollars lost in the project (282 day delay to June 15th at a cost to Crane Hogan of $7000/day).
The ongoing delay of the Main Street bridge project continues to be extremely disappointing to everyone in the Brockport community. The project extension has exacted a heavy toll on village businesses, will impact SUNY Brockport’s May commencement, and a June 13-14th village celebration. While, as Village mayor, I sincerely appreciate the open dialogue I have been able to have with DOT about the bridge reconstruction over the last 2 years, the unending extension of its completion is a stain on the contractors and project management team of Crane Hogan and the NYS DOT.
