The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey has scheduled a major project to install new drainage systems for the George Washington Bridge anchorage.

Violators may be subject to prosecution.
- For the duration of this project, automobile access to Englewood Picnic Area & Boat Basin and to Ross Dock Picnic Area will be

winter from Alpine south to Englewood Cliffs.) - On Sundays only, if conditions permit, the closed section of the Drive will be reopened to pedestrians and cyclists only.
- Except on Sundays, cyclists who are riding their bicycles must enter and exit Henry Hudson Drive via the Alpine park entrance only.
