The city Department of Transportation’s Anita Navalurkar has given us notice of the traffic effects of planned BQE repair work below Grace Court and Clark Street from 2:00 AM Saturday, October 14 to 5:00 AM Monday, October 16. During this period: (1) the “Queens bound BQE will be fully closed from Atlantic Avenue to Sands Street”; and (2) the “Staten Island bound BQE will be partially closed with only one lane available; and the Vine Street/Old Fulton Street ramp will be closed.” Furman Street will be southbound only; two lanes. This is likely to cause very large increases in traffic on all north to south or south to north Heights streets: Clinton, Henry, and Hicks, although left turns onto Hicks and Clinton from Atlantic Avenue will be banned, and the DOT has planned detours for Queens and Staten Island bound traffic. The detour routes are shown, along with more information here.
