Fourth Avenue access from Jefferson Street set to close temporarily

ALBANY — Beginning Monday at 7 a.m., Fourth Avenue from the corner of Jefferson Street to the entrance of the Emergency Center parking lot at Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital will be closed in preparation for the Trauma & Critical Care Tower construction project. Temporarily, emergency center access will be from Monroe Street, not Jefferson Street.

Patients and visitors will still use Fourth Avenue to access Phoebe’s Emergency Center. They will simply need to approach the Emergency Center from the Monroe Street side of Fourth. There will not be access from Jefferson Street. Parking is available on the first floor of the Employee & Physician Parking Deck.
