NYC streets closing for parades and Yankees' opening day

New York City will see street closures this weekend due to two parades. On Sunday, both the Bay Ridge St. Patrick’s Day Parade and the 37th Annual Phagwah Parade will take place. This means certain roads in Brooklyn and Queens will be closed to traffic. Motorists may want to plan their routes carefully as the parades will affect street access. Additionally, the New York Yankees’ opening day at Yankee Stadium is on Thursday. Many fans are expected to attend the game, which will lead to more road closures around the stadium in the Bronx. The NYPD will manage road closures on both days. Specific streets, like Marine Avenue and Liberty Avenue, will be affected. Drivers should be aware of these changes and allow extra time for travel in NY.
