Thruway Reopens After Flooding Problems

Heavy rains have caused issues with a number of highways this morning including the New York State Thruway.

The Thruway Authority reported just after 9:15 a.m. that all lanes Eastbound were blocked between exits 46 and 47 in the Rochester area, but that highway was reopened at about 11 a.m.

Earlier, a lane was closed due to flooding on both 490 near Goodman St. and 590 near Highland.

Before retiring in March 2025, Randy Gorbman was WXXI's director of news and public affairs and managed the day-to-day operations of WXXI News on radio, television, and online.
