Ponquogue Bridge Closed Indefinitely

2.21.25 | CJC | HAMPTON BAYS, NY -- An inspection yesterday by NYS DOT of the Ponquogue Bridge , which connects Hampton Bays to Dune Road, spanning the Shinnecock Bay, revealed structural deficiencies that forced DOT officials to close the bridge for an indefinite period of time, this just over three months from Memorial Day weekend. The bridge, which was inspected as recently as October 2024 and found structurally sound, is a vital link from Hampton Bays and the surrounding communities to the businesses, town beaches, the Shinnecock Commercial Fishing Dock, and multi-million dollar houses that extend from the Shinnecock Inlet east to Quogue. A press release posted on the Southampton Town website (https://www.southamptontownny.gov/Ale..., provided few details about why it proved necessary to close the bridge and offered no timeline for remediation efforts. The sudden closure of the bridge raises questions about what prompted an inspection only four months after its then scheduled bi-annual inspection, which revealed no structural issues.
