IN3: Transportation Priorities
To create and support economic growth in Orleans County, specific transportation priorities concerning streets and highways are supported by the Orleans County Chamber of Commerce which include:
The extension of the route 531 expressway to the west of Brockport. This improvement is needed to alleviate the frequent congestion on route 31 on the West Side of Monroe County. Not only will that enhance safety in the immediate area, but it will also improve access to and from Orleans County. The long-term goal of the project should be to connect to the 190 in Niagara County.
Expediting the much needed construction projects for Medina, Albion, and Holley. The Chamber will work with DOT, contractors, local government, and the businesses in the construction area to maximize access and consumer visits during the projects.
The continuing promotion and evaluation of public transportation. A special emphasis should be placed on how it assists employees in traveling to and from work and how it could bring additional consumers to area businesses.
