THE RIVERLINE STUDY

2024 is an important year for The Riverline. We are in a new phase, where several required assessments and preliminary designs must be completed before construction can begin.  

 

In February, C&S Companies began conducting The Riverline Study, which analyzes the environmental, cultural, and community impacts related to building The Riverline. This study is a requirement of the New York State Department of Transportation. The Riverline team is working closely alongside C&S throughout this process as well as with the NFTA, the land owners of the corridor. The Study is expected to take approximately 10 months to complete.

 

Part of the Study includes a series of public meetings to give updates and involve all members of the community as we move forward. These meetings are a very important part of this process, as we need the public's input to help us keep the community's vision front and center and make The Riverline the best it can be.  

 

We completed the first round of public meetings in March. These meetings included presentations about what The Riverline Study is and how the process will unfold. 

​

We completed a second round of public meetings in July to mark the mid-way point of the Study. At these meetings, we presented the results so far from the environmental, social and community, and cultural heritage assessments. We also had several display boards showcasing exciting preliminary designs for key locations along the corridor such as the Junctures and the Half Bridge.

​

You can view all of the display boards to see the latest design ideas here.

We are holding a final round of public meetings in September 2024 to wrap up the Study. Please go here for more information. ​​
