Governor Announces More Than $23 Million to Pave Nearly 150 Miles of Roads across Central New York

5 Million Will Go Towards Fixing Onondaga County Roads Flow

Infrastructure Investments Complement “Central NY Rising” – The Region’s Successful Strategy to Grow the Economy and Create New Opportunities

Projects Will Enhance Safety, Improve Traffic

Governor Andrew M. Cuomo today announced $23.5 million for projects to pave and repair 146.9 lane miles of state roads across Central New York this summer and fall. The infrastructure investment, which complements “Central NY Rising”—the region’s successful strategy to grow the economy and create new opportunities— includes projects in Cayuga, Cortland, Madison, Onondaga and Oswego counties. The projects will be completed this year.

“Safe and reliable infrastructure is the backbone of any economy and this funding will help ensure roadways across the region remain in good repair and able to meet the needs of New Yorkers, businesses and visitors alike,” Governor Cuomo said. “This administration has made an unprecedented investment in rebuilding New York’s transportation network, work that will improve the quality of life for residents and lay the groundwork for future growth and prosperity.”

The funds are part of a total $403.3 million for pavement improvements on nearly 1,700 miles of roadway across New York State, including budgeted capital construction funds and $100 million in new funding.

Maintenance paving work keeps New York’s highways in a state of good repair, and this investment delays the need for more costly, in depth repairs. The repair and modernization of our state’s transportation infrastructure will improve safety and ensure that state and local communities remain economically competitive.

New York State Department of Transportation Commissioner Matthew J. Driscoll said, “The roads we are paving this summer range from high-volume interstates to rural routes, but all are important connectors between and within communities, linking downtowns to business districts and supporting our agriculture and tourism industries. I thank Governor Cuomo for this investment in our highway system.”

Paving and repair work will take place on the following roads, Onondaga County Roads are in Bold:

  • 10.6 miles on Route 69 from Bergdorf Road to County Route 17A in the towns of Parish and Amboy, Oswego County ($1.4 million)
