SYRACUSE, N.Y. — The New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) will hold an open house on June 18 in downtown Syracuse to update the public on the latest developments regarding the Interstate 81 (I-81) viaduct-replacement project.
NYSDOT on April 22 released a preliminary draft design report/DEIS for the I-81 viaduct project that is subject to public and Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) review and comment before it’s finalized. The agency chose to pursue the community grid alternative to replacing I-81.
The open house will be held from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Oncenter in downtown Syracuse. New preliminary project drawings will be available for review and NYSDOT representatives will be available to explain the community grid project and answer questions, the department said in a news release.
