The Byram River is a river approximately 13.9 miles (22.4 km) in length, in southeast New York and southwestern Connecticut in the United States. The river has an elevation of 750 feet (230 m) at its headwaters at Byram Lake in Westchester County, New York, and flows in a southward direction, crossing the New York-Connecticut border and eventually reaching sea level at Port Chester Harbor, where it empties into the Long Island Sound. The lower portion of the river is paralleled by the Merritt Parkway in Connecticut and eventually forms the southernmost portion of the New York-Connecticut border. The river has a 29-square-mile (75 km2) drainage basin. There are several dams on the river which are controlled by the Town of Greenwich. Several bridges cross the river. As of the summer of 2007, three of the bridges in northwest Greenwich had been identified by state inspectors as in critical need of repair, and all were scheduled for work: * Bailiwick Road — already in poor shape, the bridge was further damaged by the nor'easter of April 15, 2007. In May emergency repairs were made. A redesign of the bridge may be needed to better protect against future flooding, town officials said. * Riversville Road — Greenwich officials imposed weight restrictions on the bridge which were in effect in the summer of 2007. Dump trucks are prohibited from using it, but 10-ton box trucks and 15-ton semis are allowed. * Sherwood Avenue — Greenwich officials imposed weight restrictions on the bridge which were in effect in the summer of 2007. Only 15-ton box trucks and 26-ton semis are allowed. (en) |
