New Rochelle Kicks Off Downtown Overnight Paving Project

Written By: Robert Cox

NEW ROCHELLE, NY (October 3, 2025) — The second year of the City’s Downtown Street Milling and Paving Program is set to begin Tuesday, October 7. The work will be conducted overnight from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. to minimize disruption to daytime traffic and local businesses. The project is expected to last through October 17, weather permitting.

The preliminary work schedule includes the following streets: From October 7 to 10, crews will mill and pave LeCount Place from Huguenot Street to Anderson Street, North Avenue from Huguenot Street to Anderson Street, Lawton Street from Huguenot Street to Main Street, Main Street from Church Street to Lawton Street, and Church Street from Main Street to Clinton Place. From October 12 to 17, the project will focus on Huguenot Street from Echo Avenue to Pintard Avenue.

Work is subject to conditions and adverse weather may impact the schedule. The paving process involves heavy machinery, which will cause nighttime noise. Residents are advised to observe all posted signage for parking restrictions during construction and drive carefully in the work area.

“We appreciate the support and cooperation of the New Rochelle residents and businesses as we enter the second year of the City’s Downtown Milling and Paving Program. We recognize that major construction presents its challenges, but this investment is a direct step to elevate the quality of life of our community; making our Downtown roads safer, smoother and more inviting,” said City Manager Will Melendez.

Updates will be posted on the City’s Paving Calendar and on social media.
