Standing at the Summer-Best NFTA Station on Buffalo’s beleaguered “middle” Main Street, U.S. Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer launched a major new push for $25 million in federal funding to fix the roadway between Goodell St. and the Kensington Expressway. This venture, called Buffalo’s Transforming Main Street: Building Equity and Assuring Mobility through Sustainability (“Main Street BEAMS”) project, would revitalize a 2.5-mile corridor of Main Street in the City of Buffalo adjacent to the Masten Park neighborhood to connect East Buffalo to the downtown through a more walkable and modern street. This project will completely transform the roadway to provide a smooth and safer commute for all who travel on it, create good paying jobs for the local community, and prime the area for new economic development. This project push compliments the $33M that Senator Schumer delivered to return cars to Main Street and will continue to improve Buffalo roadways.
