Description
Description | The Interstate 81 Community Grid project in Syracuse involves removing the I-81 viaduct to reconnect neighborhoods and restore local streets, aiming for economic and civic renewal. The project includes construction activities that have led to increased congestion, longer commutes, and higher accident risks along key city corridors. Environmental studies predict increases in noise and air pollution during and after construction, especially affecting South Side and University Hill neighborhoods. There is a call for comprehensive, continuous, and publicly accessible air quality monitoring to ensure accountability and protect public health. |
