The road will be 'retextured' and grease and oil residue will be cleaned.

Traffic will be diverted from the Varick Street approaches to Canal Street West to West Street North or Hudson Street North. Motorists are advised to use the Lincoln Tunnel.
Similar work took place last weekend in the Manhattan-bound lanes.
The Port Authority says “retexturing” is primarily done to improve the skid resistance on the tunnel’s road surface. Workers will also clean grease and oil residue to make the roadway safer.
