Town of Victor to hold a public meeting to discuss the “Connect Victor” project and the draft Street Network Master Plan Wednesday, July 13th between 6-8pm
Victor Town Hall, 85 E. Main Street, Victor, NY 14564
The Town of Victor will hold an open house on Wednesday, July 13th from 6:00 to 8:00 pm. There will be a brief presentation at 6:30pm. Community members are invited to view the presentation via Zoom.
The “Connect Victor” project will advance previous planning efforts by identifying connectivity gaps in the Town’s transportation network, recommending improvements to the existing streets and intersections, and providing concept-level designs to better connect streets, trails, and sidewalks.
The project area includes a portion of the Town of Victor south of the Thruway along the NYS Routes 251 and 96 corridors, including the hamlet of Fishers and most of the Village of Victor. East to west, the project area extends from the Farmington line to the vicinity of Wangum Road.
An outcome of this project will be a Street Network Master Plan, which the Town of Victor will complete and approve by September 2022. The Plan will include conceptual designs for bicycle, pedestrian, and vehicle traffic circulation improvements along the Route 96 corridor. It will recommend options for additional street connections such as the Adams Street extension to relieve congestion on Route 96, improve connections between neighborhoods and business areas so that traffic is not reliant on a few main roads, and expand trails, sidewalks and crosswalks, and bicycle lanes to encourage non-motorized transportation. These conceptual designs will provide the Town and Village with a blueprint for future infrastructure improvement projects and help the Town prioritize and secure funding for projects.
Community members are invited to drop-in to the open house between 6:00 and 8:00 pm. There will be a presentation at 6:30, which will be broadcast on Zoom. Those wishing to view the presentation online can register at: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/81941214389?pwd=END_73IW_HIFyn-XKkzflhD5grtXBU.1
