Route 96 Transformative Corridor Strategic Infrastructure Plan
Background
Traffic is a sign of Victor’s success as a fast-growing community with commercial destinations that draw visitors from across the Northeast. Congestion, however, is now a recurring problem and it puts at risk the qualities that make Victor an attractive place to live, work and shop. Traffic delays have become a source of frustration for residents, employees, and visitors. The New York State Department of Transportation, Ontario County Public Works Department, and Town Engineer have advised that current traffic volumes may jeopardize continued economic development and quality of life.
The Finger Lakes Regional Economic Development Council (FLREDC) in 2015 named Route 96 a “Transformative Corridor” where infrastructure improvements could unleash the potential for further economic development. The Town was awarded funding through FLREDC’s Consolidated Funding Application and the federal Unified Planning Work Program to develop a plan to address transportation infrastructure along the corridor. A consultant team headed by T.Y. Lin International worked under the Steering Committee’s direction to develop recommendations.
There is no one-size-fits-all solution to congestion issues on Route 96. Different segments of the corridor have distinct needs. This project will result in a combination of realistic and viable options tailored to specific locations along the corridor.
The Town and its partners - including the Village, Victor Local Development Corporation, Ontario County, Genesee Transportation Council, and New York State Department of Transportation - are committed to develop real solutions for the community that balance quality of life with continued economic success.
