Station 5: Our transit system

Here are some of the places others would like to see transit enhancements:

  • If it is possible to use the old On Track rail lines there should be a spur that reaches closer to the SU campus that continues to the train station on the north side all the way to the airport.

  • See current good sections of the city better connected to each other. Like Strathmore to the near west side to Tipp Hill to downtown. We need to find a way to get rid of the blight that separates these areas.

  • I would like to see a public transit system from Airport to Destiny to Downtown to University area. Park and ride could help cut down on car traffic in the city.

  • Finish On Track RR line from C. Mall to Transportation Center and baseball park. Bridge and track are next to Park Street!

  • Solar roads on rebuilding of all roads. Give solar energy to city and residents. See federal study by going to google.com and put in "solar roads" or "solar roadways"

  • Public transit needs to be a viable option for intra-city and city/suburb travel. It must be affordable and rapid. It should offer intra-downtown free zones. Routes need to be changed to include cross-neighborhood travel. Buses on heavily traveled routes (eastside) should do eastside loop and not be impacted by westside (Camillus) obstacles - accidents, weather. New bus facility will make extra-neighborhood transferring easy, facilitating loops on all sides of town. Need more park and ride options for commuters. Enhanced transit must be part of plan.

  • Bike racks. Accessibility for individuals with disabilities. Employer incentives for using public transit. Safe places to store bikes. Lockers and showers to accommodate more bike and pedestrian commutes.

  • A transit option bigger than a car but smaller than existing buses.
    (Posted on:5/30/2012 9:47:53 AM)

  • Most public transportation around the world is publicly funded

  • EASTWOOD!!!! (Check out CENTRO's estimated time of travel by bus from Teall Avenue to University Hill by bus...I can walk it just as fast, or bike it at least twice in the same amount of time).

  • Living off of James street, rush hour is just a nightmare. I would like to see enhancement's in the Eastwood area even heading into East Syracuse.

  • Restoring OnTrack train service between Syracuse University, Armory Square, and Destiny USA should be a top priority. This service should eventually be extended to the Regional Transit Center, and then to the Airport. A key in making this system work is to increase the frequency of trains, to approximately 3 per hour, and extending operating hours, to at least midnight on weekdays and 2 a.m. on weekends. The main users of this system, at least initially, are likely to be University students living in dormitories, rather than commuting workers. The trains should be scheduled for these most-likely initial users, not for taxpayers who won't actually use them.

  • Need ongoing renovation of downtown with emphasis on arts and cultural activities that would draw permanent residents to downtown area
