Work set to begin for New York transportation infrastructure
On April 26, 2026, New York Governor Kathy Hochul announced that work will begin on three highway and bridge construction projects that will provide travelers with enhanced safety and smoother rides on several key roadways across upstate New York. Totaling an over $30 million investment in the state’s transportation infrastructure, the projects will replace aging bridges, resurface roadways and make other improvements along highways in Franklin, Onondaga and Niagara counties.
“Now that winter has finally loosened its grip on Upstate New York, we are moving full speed ahead with vital investments that will help build back our infrastructure to reconnect communities and meet the demands of the 21st century,” Hochul said. “These highway and bridge projects will ensure the smooth flow of people and goods along vital travel arteries in the North Country and in Western and Central New York, which will further economic growth and make life easier for the tens of thousands of motorists who travel these routes every day.”
