Scope Of Work
The total rebuild of New Hempstead Road (NHR) is a complex, $28 million plus project which will take over two years to complete. NHR is a major artery servicing the New City Central Business District, County Government Buildings and the Supreme Court of New York, Rockland County.
The project spans approximately two and one half miles, from Main Street, to the Palisades Interstate Parkway. The existing drainage system and culverts throughout will be removed and replaced; including several large diameter culverts at depths over 23 feet. The project also includes the construction of 18 retaining walls (up to 300 feet in length), demolition of the former Rockland County Sheriffs’ Building (allowing the NHR “S” curve hill to be reconstructed conforming to contemporary standards), demolition of the existing Demarest Kill Bridge and replacing it with a precast concrete arch span unit (85 feet in length providing two additional traffic lanes).
In addition to the installation of several new turning lanes at key intersections and relocating existing stone walls, the entire roadway will be removed through the sub-base and replaced. The finished product will include installation of new sidewalks, granite curbs, as well as stone veneer on the Demarest Kill Bridge and several retaining walls.
