New York allocates $100M to fund statewide road repairs, see the list of CNY projects
Highways across the state of New York will be getting new funding to pay for repairs to stand up to harsh climate conditions.
Governor Kathy Hochul announced $100 million in funding to prepare major roadways and highways across New York for inclement weather in the spring and summer. The announcement comes as crews from the Department of Transportation in many parts of upstate New York are currently dealing with snow and ice on the roads.
“Between extreme heat in the summer, devastating winter storms and the ongoing saga of freeze-thaw cycles, New York’s roads take a pounding from extreme weather in all seasons,” Governor Kathy Hochul said.
