These critical investments will strengthen safety, promote environmental resilience, and elevate the economic competitiveness of our regions. 🌍✈️ By improving airport infrastructure, we're not only increasing operational efficiency and safety, but we’re also positioning New York’s airports as key drivers for long-term economic growth.

We recently teamed up with the New York State Police for an Operation Hard Hat on Route 219 in Boston, NY. Unfortunately, we issued over 30 tickets, including one driver caught speeding at 78 mph in our work zone. Let’s work together to keep our crews safe. When you see a work zone, remember: Slow down and stay alert! Your caution can make a difference. 🛑 #WorkZoneSafety
