ROCHESTER, N.Y. — Construction got underway Friday on a new roundabout at the Frederick Douglass Greater Rochester International Airport.

All traffic entering from Brooks Avenue and Airport Road will see a new temporary traffic pattern. Drivers will encounter lane reductions when entering the airport campus. Detours will be posted for the temporary road constructed around the work zone.

The goal of the project is to provide a route from Airport Road to the Smart Phone lot and to improve the safety and flow of traffic through the intersection of Airport Way and Airport Road.

Construction is expected to wrap up sometime this fall.
