The traffic patterns on the North-South Arterial (New York State Touring Routes 5-8-12) in Utica are changing again as part of the ongoing reconstruction project. One recent change is to the interchange with Burrstone Road.

The complexion of the North-South Arterial (New York State Touring Routes 5-8-12) was forever changed with the permanent closing of Sunset Avenue in West Utica. Here's the lowdown on the changes.

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.

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.

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.
