Department of Transportation laborers start abrasive blasting along four Sheepshead Bay Belt Parkway overpasses today.

Abrasive blasting is being used to remove paint, rust and debris from the **Sheepshead Bay Road, Ocean Ave, Bedford Avenue and East 14th Street (pedestrian) overpasses**.

The technique involves forcibly propelling a high-pressure stream of abrasive material against the surface to remove contaminants.

DOT will have trucks and protective netting on the scene, but **no lane closures are expected.**
