Saratoga Springs to Receive $300,000 for Crescent Avenue Connector Project

SARATOGA SPRINGS — Congressman Paul Tonko has selected the city of Saratoga Springs’ Crescent Avenue Connector project to receive $300,000 in funding under the Fiscal Year 2024 Community Project Funding process, supporting Mayor Ron Kim’s Complete Streets initiatives.

With this opportunity, the city will be able to design a one mile long, eight-to-ten-foot-wide asphalt path parallel to Crescent Avenue, between Route 9 and Nelson Avenue. 

The multi-use trail will have lanes for both cyclists and pedestrians, increasing safety from car collisions for the community, according to a statement on April 20 released by the city.
