Larchmont Area Sanitary Sewer Improvements (LASSI) Program
-Temporary Road Closure Notice: Powhatan Avenue at Buckingham Avenue-
Temporary Road Closure for Through Traffic
- On Wednesday, February 18, 2026, a one-day road closure for through traffic will be in place to support critical construction work for ongoing sewer improvements in your neighborhood.
- Work is expected to begin as early 7:30 am, and roads are expected to reopen by 4:00 pm. Due to the nature of construction, dates and times are subject to change or be extended.
- During this time, the contractor will mobilize and place a crane at the intersection of Powhatan Avenue and Buckingham Avenue to safely set a precast concrete structure. This operation requires temporary road closures to help protect residents, workers, and passing motorists.
The closure will take place on:
- Powhatan Avenue between Bolling Avenue and Magnolia Avenue
- Buckingham Avenue between Powhatan Avenue and Rolfe Avenue
Traffic & Access Information:
- Local access to homes within the road closure will be maintained at all times.
- Roads within the closure area will be open to local traffic only.
- Through-traffic will be detoured around the work zone using posted signage.
- Emergency vehicles will retain access at all times.
- Please see the map on the back of this notice for closure and detour information.
Work Zone Safety Reminder
For everyone's safety, please:
- Follow posted detour and “Road Closed” signage
- Drive slowly and cautiously near construction crews
- Avoid entering the work zone unless necessary for local access
These safety measures are essential to protect both the community and construction personnel.

While our project team works diligently to minimize impacts, you may notice increased noise and traffic, along with the people and heavy equipment (with back-up safety alarms) associated with construction. Please take care when traveling around the construction area and for your safety, do not enter the site. Due to the nature of construction, work is weather and situation dependent, and dates are subject to change.
