Photos: Construction Takes Over Route 347 Eastbound

As Route 347 Improvement project has shifted to working on the eastbound lanes over the winter months, here's a look as some of the work that is underway.

Hauppauge drivers have faced new challenges and traffic concerns as work on the Route 347 improvement project has shifted south, affecting the eastbound lanes this winter. 

Construction workers finished up utility and drainage work in the center median by December 2011, shifting further south. Then, they installed before moving work onto the shoulder of the eastbound lans. 

The project has close down the shoulder of the road, which is marked by construction cones and signs. Driveways for local businesses and shopping centers are clearly marked, and often have temporary traffic signs in place.
