SYRACUSE -- I-690 westbound through Syracuse will be down to one lane between Lodi and Townsend Street for the next week for repairs.
That was the same stretch of highway with lane restrictions last week because of a hole in the bridge deck. While repairing that state highway officials discovered other problems that need to be fixed.
The 690 lane restrictions are just one of many projects underway this week that will cause delays and detours. Here's the complete list from the state DOT:
