Assemblyman Tommy John Schiavoni (D-Sag Harbor) today announced that the Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) has awarded the contract for the replacement of three aging bridges located on the East End of Long Island. The project includes the bridges at Cranberry Hole Road in Amagansett, Sagg Road in Sagaponack, and River Avenue in Eastport.

The bridge replacement project represents a significant investment in public safety and transportation improvements for East End communities. Construction is anticipated to begin at the end of this year or in early 2027.

"These bridge replacements are critical to maintaining a safe and reliable transportation network for residents, commuters, and visitors across the East End," said Assemblyman Schiavoni. "I am pleased to see the LIRR moving this project forward. Investing in these improvements today helps ensure the long-term safety, efficiency, and resiliency of our transportation system for years to come."

Assemblyman Schiavoni remains committed to advocating for increased train service and projects that strengthen public safety, support economic growth, and improve quality of life throughout the East End.
