SLOW DOWN!! MOVE OVER!!
From Steuben County,
Following the severe storm that struck Steuben County on June 9, 2025, Eric Rose Steuben County Public Works Commissioner says the Department of Public Works is actively responding to widespread damage across the county’s highway system. Crews are currently engaged in extensive repairs, and all travelers should expect traffic delays and exercise extreme caution on county roads until further notice.
“Our teams are working around the clock to restore safe travel conditions,” said Commissioner of Public Works Eric Rose. “We’re asking for the public’s patience as we complete these essential repairs and ensure roads are passable once again.”
Some of the most heavily impacted areas are County Routes 87 and 16, where flooding caused significant damage to roadway surfaces and drainage systems. Additional damage assessments are ongoing throughout the county.
Motorists are reminded:
If you see flashing lights, slow down and move over—crews are on site and your cooperation helps keep everyone safe
If you encounter standing water—Don’t Drown, Turn Around. It is never safe to drive through floodwaters.
Public works crews are deployed in full force, and safety remains the highest priority.
For updates and road closure notices, please monitor the Steuben County website and official social media channels.
