I can't disagree about the bike lane. I cross it every day going to work and I've seen two people use it ever. There is no place to take a bike on either end of the bridge, and there is no parking on the Kingston end. Extremely odd decision to make that. Regarding the pot holes, they are fixing them now. It's a bit of a mess at the moment, but they are re-paving the whole thing.
Whether this is the right place or not...Fred isn't wrong. They took one of the better bridges, out of the three local one's and completely fuckered it. Put the bike lane in, that can be used 5 months out of the year, lowered the speed limit, and won't fix the literal shitshow of potholes littering it. The best thing is, rather than the stupid bike lane, they could have added a lane on the bridge, like the Mid Hudson...and there's plenty of room for more lane on Dutchess county side. But nope, to hell with people that work...let's do more bike lanes!
Google map isn't the place for this kind of complaint. Nobody from the state will ever read your comment. You'll have to call the State Thruway department to be heard.
You'd feel a bit differently if you crossed the bridge going east between 6:45 AM and 9:00 AM and 4:30 PM and 6:30 PM. I've been crossing that bridge for 25 years.
