Conesus, NY – Drivers in Livingston County are being urged to avoid part of W Swamp Road today after authorities announced a temporary closure due to a disabled vehicle blocking the roadway.
According to the Livingston County Sheriff’s Office, W Swamp Road (State Route 256) is closed between Sliker Hill Road and Kuder Hill Road in the Town of Conesus. The closure was reported this morning and remains in effect as crews work to address the disabled vehicle and restore safe travel conditions.
The closure affects a rural stretch of roadway that connects local traffic through Conesus and surrounding parts of Livingston County. Drivers who regularly use State Route 256 are advised to seek alternate routes and allow for additional travel time, especially during peak commuting hours.
Officials have not provided an estimated reopening time, noting that conditions will depend on how quickly the vehicle can be removed and the roadway cleared. No injuries have been reported in connection with the incident, and authorities have not indicated whether weather or mechanical issues contributed to the vehicle becoming disabled.
The Livingston County Sheriff’s Office emphasized that motorists should avoid the area entirely if possible to reduce congestion and allow emergency and service crews to work safely. Drivers approaching the closure may encounter barricades or patrol units redirecting traffic.
Residents in Conesus and nearby communities are encouraged to monitor official updates from the Sheriff’s Office for the latest information on when the road will reopen. Additional advisories may be issued if the closure extends longer than expected.
