Delays in the construction of new sidewalks along nearly three miles of Noyac Road have pushed the roadwork into July and caused headaches for motorists on some days, but the work is nearing completion and will be a major improvement for residents of the region that is already being well used, Southampton Town officials say.Michael Wright reports on 27east.com that the project was originally scheduled to be completed by the end of June, but the contractors have about a half-mile of sidewalks to go. The work requires that one lane of traffic be closed off, with the other lane used to allow cars to pass in alternating directions.The contractors have been wrapping up work each day before 3 p.m. to avoid impacting the heaviest trade parade traffic, but during the run-up to the July Fourth holiday last week the closures still meant long backups of cars on Noyac Road.“July Fourth weekend and they’re building a sidewalk — really?” one commuter, Debbie King, a Center Moriches resident, said in a message to a reporter last week with a photo of the resultant traffic jam through the windshield of her car, at about 2 p.m. on July 2. “Are they actually trying to torture us LOL?”Southampton Town Highway Superintendent Charlie McArdle knows that King and other commuters are not actually LOL-ing about the headaches of traffic delays from the project but said that the relatively minor inconveniences caused by the work will be over soon and could have been much worse.“The company that we picked to do this work is the best, the fastest and the most efficient company that is available for us to use — they are a huge company and we picked them on purpose because they have the resources to do it as fast as possible,” McArdle said of Rosemar Construction, the East Moriches contractor that won the $1.5 million contract from the town to build the sidewalk along Noyac Road.The sidewalk project has been in the planning for more than four years and is something that members of the Noyac community have asked for repeatedly for many years, Southampton Town Councilman Michael Iasilli said.***A Southampton man has been arrested, charged with reckless operation of a vessel, failure to report an accident involving personal injury and other counts after New York State Police said he crashed his boat into a jetty in Sag Harbor on Monday night, seriously injuring two passengers.Police said the operator, identified as Peter Mangiameli, 57, also left the scene while those passengers were receiving medical attention.John Valenti reports in NEWSDAY that the two passengers, whose identities were not released, were transported to a hospital for treatment of injuries that police said included a broken rib, leg fracture and vertebrae fracture. Their conditions were not reported yesterday.State police said Sag Harbor Village police received a report at 10:07 p.m. Monday that a boat had struck the jetty in Sag Harbor Bay.Investigators determined Mangiameli was operating a 2023 35-foot cruise boat from the bay into the harbor when the vessel struck the stone jetty causing what police described as "significant damage." There were eight passengers aboard the vessel, police said.Police said after the collision Mangiameli docked the boat but then left the scene.
