There's an update on a major sewer main break in Hartsdale.

It happened on East Hartsdale Avenue on Memorial Day weekend of 2024. Repairs are still in the works, almost exactly a year later.

"People in my building have been complaining for the whole year. It's an inconvenience that you can't park and it's sort of ugly," says Jennie, who lives nearby.

Greenburgh Town Supervisor Paul Feiner says over the last year, they've been trying to come up with a plan to get it fixed. However, the cost to do that is a lot more than they initially thought.

"Approximately $16 million. We spoke to the town attorney, we spoke to the comptroller. They said for a project of this amount, you have to go for a bid. We're going to have to do a request for proposals," Feiner tells News 12.

Feiner says "bidding out" could take time.

"My goal is to get this done as quickly as humanly possible and at the same time, to comply with the state laws. We want to make sure it's done correctly and we're not rushing something," says Feiner.

On top of that, he says it's a challenging job.

"You have a pipe that's 100 years old that broke and the pipe is under a building. If it's not done correctly, there could be structural damage," says Feiner.

Some residents tell News 12 they understand the delays.

"The infrastructure is 100 years old and it can't last forever," says Joan, who lives nearby.

But others say it has been a hassle.

"It's affecting everybody on this street, especially being one of the only thoroughfares," says Hartsdale resident Diane Morrison.
