Keeping up with the times
ROCHESTER -Train and subway stations across the state now offer passengers comfortable waiting areas, spacious platforms, and better
safety features. Sadly, Rochester Central Station is lagging behind. This current situation, however, is expected to come to an end soon. The city government has been negotiating with financiers and the federal government to procure funding for renovating and enlarging the Rochester railway facility, which was built back in the early 1950s. Local government officials hope that there will be sufficient funds to proceed
with much-needed updates and expansions within a few weeks. Should financing be secured, starting on February 1, the city plans to request
proposals from contractors with ideas for making Rochester Central Station a transport facility that residents can be proud of. Plans call for the inclusion of additional retail and dining facilities, enlarged waiting areas, two new platforms, and an upgraded ticketing counter and an automated payment system. Officials are positive that financing will be found and that Rochester will have a fully upgraded station by the end of next year.
