Completion of two Ronkonkoma paving projects announced

Brookhaven Town Highway Superintendent Daniel P. Losquadro and Councilman Neil Foley have announced the completion of two paving projects in Ronkonkoma/Holbrook. In the first paving project, crews inspected and installed drains and repaired and replaced damaged concrete curbing and aprons prior to resurfacing Ackerly Lane from Portion Road in Ronkonkoma to Patchogue Holbrook Road in Holbrook. The total cost for this paving project was $221,000.

The second paving project involved seven roadways in a neighborhood just south of Portion Road, off of Warren Avenue, in Ronkonkoma. Prior to paving, crews inspected and repaired drains and replaced damaged concrete aprons and cobblestone curbing. Roadways resurfaced in this project include: Berwyn Drive, Borman Court, Cara Drive, Cedar Creek Hollow, Croydon Avenue, Monte Court, and Sweetbriar Court. The total cost for this paving project was approximately $272,000.

“Ackerly Lane is a main artery in Ronkonkoma and Holbrook,” said Superintendent Losquadro. “Along with the neighborhood roadways off of Warren Avenue, Ackerly is now safer and smoother for pedestrians, bicyclists and motorists.”

Councilman Foley said, “We are pleased to announce the completion of these paving projects, which will greatly improve the safety and quality of our roadways in Ronkonkoma and Holbrook. Thanks to the hard work of our crews and collaboration with Highway Superintendent Losquadro, these upgrades will benefit residents for years to come.”
