Sullivan County includes the town of Bethel, Callicoon, Cochecton, Delaware, Fallsburg and more. Some people may associate Sullivan County with also being the home of Bethel Woods, the original site of Woodstock.

The Cochecton-Damacus Bridge is closing over the weekend.

Residents of Sullivan County and those who are visiting are advised to take an alternative route. The New York State Department of Transportation made an announcement on social media.

According to the post from Sullivan County, NY Government, " The closure is necessary to facilitate an ongoing redecking project. All work is weather dependent."

We know there are many more than the 18 on this list, so let us hear from you!
