Interstate 481 (I-481) is an auxiliary Interstate Highway that serves as an eastern bypass of Syracuse, New York, in the US. Its southern end is at its southern interchange with its parent, I-81, in the city of Syracuse and curves east, north and finally west through the Syracuse suburbs of Jamesville, DeWitt and Cicero before terminating at its northern interchange with I-81 near North Syracuse. (New York State Route 481 (NY 481) continues as a divided expressway northwest to Clay, Phoenix and Fulton and then predominantly as a two-lane highway to Oswego.) I-481 is part of the Veterans Memorial Highway, which extends northward onto NY 481. By 2026, I-481 will be decommissioned by a reroute of I-81 onto the freeway.[3]

Route description

I-481 begins at I-81's exit 81 (exit 1A on I-81 Southbound), a directional T interchange in the South Valley section of the city of Syracuse. Immediately crossing under NY 173, I-481 proceeds eastward alongside Rock Cut Road (unsigned County Route 103 [CR 103]), which meets the freeway at exit 82 heading east. I-481 crosses out of Syracuse and into the town of Onondaga, paralleling Rock Cut Road into Clark Reservation State Park. The Interstate Highway makes a bend to the northeast, crossing over tracks used by the New York, Susquehanna and Western Railway and entering exit 84, which connects to Jamesville Road (CR 7).[4]

I-481 northbound nearing I-81 in North Syracuse

Después de la salida  84, la I-481 hace una curva hacia el norte, cruzando al este del campo de golf Butternut Creek al entrar en la ciudad de DeWitt . En DeWitt, la I-481 entra en un intercambio (salida  86) con la NY  5 y la NY  92 (East Genesee Street) justo al oeste de la aldea de Lyndon. Después del cruce, la I-481 continúa curvándose hacia el noreste, cruzando el extremo oeste del Parque Estatal Old Erie Canal y al este de White Chapel Memory Gardens antes de entrar en la salida  88, un gran intercambio con el extremo este de la I-690 . Justo al norte del intercambio, la I-481 cruza la NY  290 (Manlius Center Road) y el DeWitt Yard de CSX Transportation  . A poca distancia después de la vía férrea, la I-481 entra en la salida 89, que conecta con Kirkville Road ( CR  53 ). [ 4 ]

Después del intercambio con CR  53, la I-481 continúa hacia el norte a través de DeWitt, paralela a Fly Road ( CR  77 ). Un poco más adelante, la I-481 cruza la autopista New York State Thruway ( I-90 ) y entra en la salida  90, un intercambio en trompeta que lleva a la salida  34A de la Thruway. Un poco más adelante de la Thruway, la I-481 entra en la salida  91, un intercambio parcial en forma de trébol con NY  298 (Collamer Road). La autopista continúa hacia el noreste, cruzando East Taft Road ( CR  18 ) en DeWitt antes de girar hacia el noroeste en la ciudad de Cicero . En Cicero, la I-481 entra en un intercambio (salida  95) con Northern Boulevard ( CR  82 ). Un poco más adelante al oeste en la ciudad de North Syracuse , la I-481 entra en la salida  96, un intercambio en forma de trébol con la salida 11 de la I-81. En este cruce, la designación de la I-481 termina mientras que la NY  481 continúa hacia el noroeste en dirección a Oswego . [ 4 ]

Historia

Lo que ahora es la I-481 se propuso originalmente como partes de dos carreteras separadas que circunvalaban la ciudad de Syracuse . Desde la autopista del estado de Nueva York ( I-90 ) en DeWitt [ 2 ] hacia el suroeste hasta la I-81 en el extremo sur de Syracuse, la carretera se designó originalmente como I-281. [ 5 ] Al norte de la autopista, la moderna I-481 era inicialmente parte de la "Ruta  57 reubicada", una carretera de acceso limitado propuesta que se extendía desde la NY  57 en Fulton hasta la autopista en DeWitt a través de North Syracuse . Toda la I-281 y el segmento de la Ruta  57 reubicada al este de la I-81 en North Syracuse fueron redesignados como I-481 el  1 de enero de 1970. [ 2 ]

El primer tramo de la autopista que se construyó fue la parte entre Jamesville Road y NY  5. El trabajo en esta parte de la autopista comenzó alrededor de 1963 [ 6 ] y se completó y abrió al tráfico en 1965. [ 7 ] La construcción de la I-281, y más tarde la I-481, avanzó inicialmente hacia el norte desde NY  5. El segmento entre Lyndon y la I-690 se abrió al tráfico a principios de la década de 1970, [ 8 ] [ 9 ] mientras que el tramo entre la I-690 y la autopista se completó en 1977. [ 10 ] Hacia el suroeste, el tramo de la I-481 desde la I-81 hasta Jamesville Road se terminó a principios de la década de 1980, conectando finalmente la I-481 con su principal. [ 11 ] [ 12 ] El último tramo de la ruta desde la autopista hasta la I-81 en North Syracuse se completó al sur de la NY  298 en 1985 [ 13 ] y se terminó en 1990. [ 14 ]

Futuro

As part of the demolition and replacement of I-81 through Downtown Syracuse, I-481 will be redesignated as I-81, while the current route of I-81 will be redesignated as I-81 Business (I-81 Bus). As part of the project, both interchanges between I-81 and I-481 will be reconstructed. The ramps would be expanded to carry more traffic to account for the increased traffic. Also as part of the project, I-481 would be expanded to three lanes each way between exits 88 (I-690) and 89 (Kirkville Road); to three lanes northbound between exits 89 and 90 (I-90); and to three lanes southbound between exits 96 (I-81) and 95 (Northern Boulevard). Construction started in May 2022 and take five years to complete.[15][16][17] However, in May 2021, Governor Andrew Cuomo announced the project would not commence until the following year. At this time, the New York state government allocated $800 million to the "community grid" plan.[18] In preparation for the reconstruction/relocation of I-81 around Syracuse, the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO), at its annual Spring Meeting in May 2021, conditionally approved the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT)'s application to reroute I-81 over I-481 around the east side of Syracuse and redesignate I-81 through Syracuse as I-81 Bus, pending concurrence from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). The I-481 designation will be eliminated once these route changes have been completed.[19]

Exit list

Exit numbers follow I-81's future rerouting around Syracuse. The entire route is in Onondaga County.
