This section of I-287 ties into the New York Thruway mainline (I-87) just across the New York state line at Suffern. Interstates 87 & 287 combine east along the New York Thruway to Nyack and the tolled Tappan Zee Bridge across the Hudson River. Major construction is underway to replace the aging Tappan Zee Bridge with a new cable-stayed bridge. Work runs through 2018, with traffic shifting onto one half of the new span by mid 2017.
From Dysfunction To Construction. Plans for a new bridge to replace the Tappan Zee were first discussed in 1999, and over the following decade, $88 million taxpayer dollars were spent, 430 meetings were held, and 150 concepts were considered â yet still, the project did not move forward.
