July 2026 FOCUS Forum. Transportation: Getting From Here To There
Join FOCUS for a hybrid public forum where panelists will explore the future of transportation in Central New York and the shared responsibility of building a connected, accessible, and sustainable network for all residents. This discussion is informed by local conditions, recent developments, and ongoing efforts to ensure safe, reliable, and equitable mobility across our communities. Panelists will provide an overview of transportation planning, infrastructure investment, and mobility initiatives across Onondaga County and the City of Syracuse, drawing on their professional roles and direct experience managing, developing, and improving local transit and transportation systems. The conversation will highlight public agencies and planning organizations, and the ways residents can stay informed and engaged in shaping how our region moves. The Forum will emphasize practical civic participation, including understanding local transportation planning processes, supporting multimodal and transit initiatives, and engaging with community partners, while allowing panelists to address emerging issues and priorities as they see fit. After opening remarks from our panel, the conversation moves to a moderated Q&A, giving attendees the opportunity to ask questions and discover ways to engage with local priorities and initiatives. This is a welcoming, respectful space for community members to learn, engage, and explore ways to be actively involved in shaping the civic life of Central New York.
