Farmingville, NY – –Brookhaven Town Highway Superintendent Daniel P. Losquadro and Councilman Kevin LaValle have announced the completion of two paving projects in Centereach and Selden.
In the first project, heavily-traveled Hawkins Road was resurfaced from Magnolia Drive in Selden to Wireless Road in Centereach. Prior to paving, crews inspected drains and made concrete improvements, including replacing damaged concrete sidewalks, curbing and aprons. Crews removed and replaced 5,260 linear feet of concrete curb, 7,552 square feet of concrete sidewalk, 3,675 square feet of ADA-compliant handicap ramps, and 7,514 square feet of concrete aprons, at a cost of $506,900. The total cost for this project was approximately $1.1 million.
Additionally, in another paving project, crews resurfaced three nearby residential roadways: Capri Road, Impala Drive and Lark Drive in Centereach. The total cost for this project was $113,557.
Superintendent Losquadro said, “Hawkins Road is so heavily-traversed and, as such, was in great need of resurfacing. It had been on our radar for some time and I am very grateful we were able to include its resurfacing in our 2021 paving season.”
Councilmember LaValle said, “The Town’s investment in infrastructure improvements makes our roads safer for motorists, bicycle riders and pedestrians. I thank Superintendent Losquadro and the men and women of the Highway Department for the important work they do all year round for the residents in Council District 3 and throughout the Town.”
