New York State Route 149 - Future

Future

NY 149 was upgraded in the late 2000s between Martindale Road in Queensbury and the Washington County line. The project included the straightening of several curves and leveling of some depressions in the grade. Planning for the project began in mid-2006, and opening bids started in late 2008. Construction began in early 2009 and was expected to be completed in mid-2010. The project cost $8.6 million in federal and state funding. NYSDOT has also opened a webpage for a future project to widen the intersection between US 4 and NY 149 in the village of Fort Ann. Development of the $1.1 million project was expected to begin in late 2009; however, it has been postponed indefinitely.

Famous quotes containing the word future:

    If nations always moved from one set of furnished rooms to another—and always into a better set—things might be easier, but the trouble is that there is no one to prepare the new rooms. The future is worse than the ocean—there is nothing there. It will be what men and circumstances make it.
    Alexander Herzen (1812–1870)

    The final upshot of thinking is the exercise of volition, and of this thought no longer forms a part; but belief is only a stadium of mental action, an effect upon our nature due to thought, which will influence future thinking.
    Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)

    [With the Union saved] its form of government is saved to the world; its beloved history, and cherished memories, are vindicated; and its happy future fully assured, and rendered inconceivably grand.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
