Several boarded-up buildings in West Utica that front the North-South Arterial (New York State Touring Routes 5-8-12) are going to be demolished by the NYS Department of Transportation.
August 7, 2012 The project that will remake the North-South Arterial in Utica is months away from starting and years away from completion but signs of the inevitable change in the neighborhood can already been seen.
May 8, 2012 Here's a holiday that comes around only once in a century, the chance to celebrate the Arterial Highway through Utica. The roadway, known colloquially as The Arterial, is actually a multiplex of New York State Touring Routes 5, 8 and 12. Being that today is May 8, 2012, we can name today Utica Arterial Day and celebrate 5-8-12.
