Syracuse Mayor Owens announces 2026 Road Reconstruction Plans
On April 9, 2026, Syracuse Mayor Sharon F. Owens announced the City’s 2026 road reconstruction plan, offering a preview of projects scheduled for the upcoming paving season. The work will be completed by the City’s Department of Public Works and Department of Engineering using a combination of local, state and federal funding.
The 2026 plan includes repaving approximately 20 miles of city streets, with projects in every quadrant of Syracuse, N.Y. The Syracuse Common Council approved funding for the projects during the February 9 regular meeting. The City also plans to seal and resurface additional streets in areas without curbing to extend the life of existing roadways.
“I am proud to share this year’s road reconstruction plan with our residents,” said Owens. “Investing in our streets is investing in our neighborhoods. As we move into the construction season, our focus remains on delivering safe, reliable infrastructure while keeping residents informed every step of the way.”
