which the Town will be put to replace the street, highways or sidewalk, pavement, curb or gutter
in proper condition, and the unexpended balance, if any, shall be refunded to the depositor. The

Dear Supervisor Russell
I arra pleased to inform you that the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT)
professionals are starting to develop a multi-location safety enhancemerd project, PIN 0310.59, This
project is anticipated to be awarded in 2025. One of the proposed locations within this project is NYS
Route 25 at Oaklawn Avenue Extension in Southold. It is NYSDOT`s objective to enhance traffic
calming at this intersection.
The draft proposal is to install a fourteen-foot-wide raised concrete imprinted median island on NYS
Route 25,just west of Oaklawn Avenue Extension, for the Southold school crossing guard to stand. As
part of this proposal, the existing NYS Route 25 crosswalk will be reconfigured to shorten the north-
south crossing distance by eliminating the skew. In addition, the eastbound and westbound NYS Route
25 through lanes and shoulders will be narrowed. An illustration overlayedon an aerial is attached for
your reference. Please notify this office, in writing, if the Town of Southampton, Southold Police
Department and Southold School Distract would support this proposal.
Thank you for your interest in and support for the New York State Transportation system. If you have
any questions or need additional information, please feel free to contact Karyn Meyer, Director of
Government Relations, or me at
R10-GovernmentRelations dot.n ov.
Sincerely,
