The Onondaga Citizens League Board of Directors has announced that the 2015 OCL study will focus on Central New York’s mobility system, including public transit and alternative models of transportation and access for area residents. The study will commence early in 2015. The proposal presented to the Board stated that “although Syracuse’s transportation system is driven by a car-centric culture, many cultural, demographic and economic trends are spurring change. A growing ‘back-to-the city’ movement and increasing aging population are creating more interest in walkable, bikable and transit-served neighborhoods. New transit options and technological innovations are being studied. At the same time, funding cuts are reducing transit runs and jobseekers without cars are left without viable transportation options, even as employers are having difficulty filling job openings. Access to health care is also a critical issue for those without cars or driving ability.” Anyone interested in participating in the 2015 study should contact ocl@syr.edu
