Glen Avenue Resurfacing Begins Next Week — Detour Details Inside

Sea Cliff, NY · August 21, 2026

Unpacking lawn chairs for tonight’s beachfront concert finale is top of mind as Friday arrives. Before heading down to the water, here is what is happening around town.


The Lead

Nassau County officials confirmed this week that a long-awaited road resurfacing project on Glen Avenue is scheduled to begin in about a week. Managed by the Nassau County Department of Public Works, the paving initiative targets the heavily traveled corridor between Prospect Avenue and Glen Cove Avenue. Crews recently completed preliminary utility patching along the route, clearing the way for full asphalt milling and resurfacing.

Glen Avenue serves as a primary route for daily village commuters and local school traffic, and months of utility trenching left portions of the roadway notoriously uneven. Village officials advise drivers to expect temporary single-lane closures and minor delays once heavy equipment arrives on site. Work will proceed in phases to keep traffic moving during peak travel hours.
