Have You Noticed That Palumbo Place is Partially Open?

Northern end of Palumbo where there are two lanes of traffic for Village Hall and parking lot
 
March 2, 2022: Have you noticed that Palumbo Place, the street that runs behind Bronxville Village Hall, is partially open? 
 
Palumbo had been fully closed for some time due to the construction of the new Village Department of Public Works ("DPW") building, which is now close to completion and will be dedicated in the coming months.
New DPW Building
 
Last fall, the Bronxville village trustees approved permanent closure of through traffic along Palumbo in front of the new DPW building to improve safety for the DPW workers who often load and fix trucks outside the building.  This configuration is standard for most DPW departments in Westchester.  In fact, Bronxville may have been the only DPW department in Westchester that had its workers on a through street. 
 
There is now one-way access to Gramatan Avenue on the southerly end of Palumbo for those exiting the cemetery and Alden Place.  There are temporary barriers there while residents get accustomed to the new configuration.  These will be removed in time.

The northern half of Palumbo is open and can be accessed from Midland Avenue.  This road provides entry to the parking lot that is located next to the firehouse. This lot will be re-striped and some three-hour parking will be added when weather permits.  The village will also stripe a bike/pedestrian lane down the west side of the road.
