Schumer revealed that following a personal call with USDOT Secretary Pete Buttigieg, that I-81’s most critical approval, the project’s Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), will officially be released within weeks and without question. Schumer also said, the next and final phase before shovels break the ground, is also on the fast track for approval this year.\r\n“Syracuse put on your hard hats and get ready, because we are in the homestretch for the transformation of I-81 to finally begin. The feds are hitting the gas on this project with a now imminent green light and federal dollars close behind,” said U.S. Senator Charles Schumer. “I made it clear to Secretary Buttigieg that it is essential that the imminent EIS be full, comprehensive and address all the community’s concerns to ensure the success of this project, and I am glad to hear that this final step will be ready in a matter of weeks. Once this happens, the jobs can start flowing and so can the federal funds because we made key programs more robust in the bipartisan infrastructure bill, like Reconnecting Communities and the Highway Trust Fund, with Syracuse in mind.”"}}
