Con Ed crews have completed the removal the Cyrus Field Road utility poles and the scenic beauty of this environmentally sensitive area of the Village has been restored.
In late July, Village representatives met with Con Ed officials to discuss a range of issues including tree pruning procedures, removal of redundant utility poles resulting from pole upgrades and removal of utility poles on Cyrus Field Road that had been erected as part of a Con Ed plan to install additional overhead wires. Specifically, the poles and wires were to be added along a section of Cyrus Field Road from the Reservoir up to the Legend Hollow entrance.
During the meeting, the Con Ed officials indicated they were willing to abandon the plan for the additional Cyrus Field Road overhead wires and provide power supply redundancy to the Harriman Road area through existing upgraded infrastructure. Con Ed crews have completed the removal the Cyrus Field Road utility poles and the scenic beauty of this environmentally sensitive area of the Village has been restored.
