According to the Roosevelt Island Operating Corp (RIOC):

Please be advised on Wednesday, September 12, 2012 Main Street roadway reconstruction will commence from the area below the Helix ramp to 40 River Road. The scope of project will involve removal of the existing Z-Brick Pavers and installation of an asphalt surface. The project will be performed in 3 Phases. During construction, the roadway will be condensed and will continue to provide two-way traffic at all times. Bus stops in the area of construction will be temporary relocated to ensure that passengers can board safely which may result in residual delays in service. The work is estimated to be completed by March 2013.

Sincerely,

Roosevelt Island Operating Corp Advisories Group
