Cicero area traffic alert: Continuing now for the last few months, primary and secondary roads' traffic patterns have been quite disrupted.
The I-81 (Nedrow - Brewerton route, through the city of Syracuse) & I-481 (Jamesville - Fulton route, eastern beltway around Syracuse) corridors are in a constant state of flux, with various leap-frogging construction related delays. For us, the main issue will be the huge project going on around the Circle Drive, N Syracuse area (used to have Sears & Roebuck store, but now known as Burdick's Drivers Village auto dealership area). Try to avoid I-81 SOUTHBOUND between Cicero and N Syracuse, as three lanes merge into one and traffic is often backed up over a half mile. Going south from Rte 31 in Cicero, either use Rte 11 or, as Thompson Rd is closed at Rte 31 due an interesting round-about being constructed, head down South Bay Rd and turn left onto Thompson Rd at the intersection by Kinney Drugs, just before Gillette Rd Middle School (beyond Gillette Rd MS, just below Pine Grove Rd, the South Bay Rd bridge over I-81is closed to southbound traffic). As John might say, fins up you herd of cats!
