The New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic
Preservation (State Parks) has announced the next round of public meetings in
the scoping process for phase three of the reimagining of the Niagara Scenic
Parkway, between Findlay Drive in the City of Niagara Falls and Center Street
in the Village of Lewiston.
Two meetings will be held as follows:
Tuesday, December 3, 2024
4:00 p.m.- 6:00 p.m.
Niagara Falls Train Station
825 Depot Ave.
Niagara Falls, NY 14305
Wednesday, December 4
6:00 p.m.- 8:00 p.m.
Village of Lewiston Red Brick
School
145 N 4th St.
Lewiston, NY 14092
For both meetings, a formal presentation will be made at the
beginning of the meeting followed by informal conversation and review of concepts
with project staff.
The scoping process, which began in early 2024, is considering
broad concepts for creating a sensitively configured transportation network
along the Niagara Gorge, and will include traffic studies, environmental
review, development of design alternatives and public engagement. The scoping
process is expected to wrap up by August 2025.
While New York State Parks will be the lead agency, the City of
Niagara Falls, the Town and Village of Lewiston, the New York State Department
of Transportation, USA Niagara and the New York Power Authority will serve as
partners.
