The arrows directing motorists to the right-turn lane were among safety issues raised at a recent meeting on the nearby Ashford Avenue bridge project, lohud.com reported.

Residents and businesses in the vicinity of the $18 million bridge project have expressed concern about its effects on traffic flow, among other things.

The project has forced some drivers to exit at Lawrence Street or to detour onto the Saw Mill River Road or Ogden Avenue, the lohud.com story said.

The 65-year-old span, which connects Dobbs Ferry and Ardsley, is scheduled to take nearly three years to replace.
