Traffic routes at the Robert F. Kennedy Bridge, Henry Hudson Bridge and Hugh L. Carey Tunnel will be diverted Sunday, as motorists make way for cyclists participating in the MS 2024 Bike Tour.
“Although the race will not result in the closure of any bridge or tunnel, approach roadways to the facilities, as well as several exit and entrance ramps, will be impacted,” the MTA said in a statement.
The change in traffic patterns will be in effect from 7 a.m. through 1 p.m.
• Hugh L. Carey Tunnel: All Manhattan bound traffic entering the Hugh L. Carey Tunnel must exit northbound onto West Street or Trinity Place.
• Henry Hudson Bridge: There will be no access for Manhattan-bound traffic to the southbound Henry Hudson Bridge from the Mosholu Parkway.
• Robert F. Kennedy Bridge: The northbound FDR Drive and Harlem River Drive will be closed. All Manhattan-bound traffic crossing the RFK Bridge will exit onto the southbound FDR Drive or 125th Street.
The one-day race, which is aiming to raise $2.55 million for the battle against Multiple Sclerosis, starts and ends at Pier 76 in Manhattan, making a 30-mile loop around the island of Manhattan.
