President Joe Biden is coming to Irvington on Thursday. Road closures, traffic expected

President Biden's visit to Irvington on Thursday for a fundraiser is expected to produce road closures and traffic, but details are not available for security reasons.

The president is expected to attend a high-profile campaign fundraising event hosted by actors Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones on April 25 in the Hudson River village. It will be his third time visiting the county since he was elected president in 2020.

The Irvington Police Department in a statement Monday advised residents to avoid traveling in the village after 2 p.m.

"Significant traffic impacts are expected from mid-afternoon through rush hour," the statement said. "In addition, there will also be several major thoroughfares subject to long-term closures in Westchester County, which will add to the traffic impacts on secondary roads."

Both the Irvington PD and Westchester County Police said they cannot release information about which roads will be impacted because of security concerns.

Metro North's Hudson Line service will not be impacted by the potential traffic.
