Yonkers Insider: City of Yonkers: MCLEAN AVENUE TRAFFIC IMPROVEMENTS.

 

On March 9, 2022, Mayor Spano announced improvements to help alleviate the congestion issues along McLean Avenue between Putnam Avenue and Midland Avenue.   After a month long of observing traffic patterns along McLean Avenue, the Traffic Engineering Department implemented the following changes: The school bus stop has been moved to Harrison Avenue with signage indicating "No Parking Any Time".  The opposite side has signage indicating "No Standing Any Time". Additional signage will be posted on Harrison Avenue, both directions approaching the school bus stop area, indicating "Bus Stop Ahead". Parking on McLean Avenue between Putnam Avenue and Tibbetts Road has been strategically eliminated during peak traffic hours, Monday through Friday 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. to mitigate traffic congestion. Spring 2022, the City will upgrade the crosswalks at the McLean Avenue and Tibbetts Road/Harrison Avenue intersection. Traffic signal improvements will be made to some McLean Avenue traffic signals to improve traffic flow.
