Painting/approach rehabilitation of the Brooklyn Bridge across the East River, mile 0.8, is in progress. Contractor has installed scaffolding from the Manhattan side through mid-channel. Scaffolding reduces the available vertical clearance under the bridge by approx. 6 feet. The scaffolding will be marked by three red lights, one at each end of the scaffolding and one at the center. The remainder of the channel between mid-channel and the Brooklyn side will provide full vertical clearance and is clear of any obstructions, however, at times the movable platforms will be in use and occupy part of the Brooklyn half channel, the traveller platform can be move for passage of large vessels, with a one hour advance notice. Contact Coast Guard Vessel Traffic Service at 718-354-4088 for information if the movable traveler is in use. This project is expected to be completed by end April 2015. Mariners are advised to exercise caution when transiting the area and large vessels are reminded to transit the Brooklyn half of the channel.
