  7. Corridor Study Step 1 Corridor Vision Statement The Route 17 corridor in Orange and Sullivan counties will support a robust, economic future with safe, efficient access for all users while preserving its scenic beauty and natural resources. Freight commerce, recreational travelers, and daily commuters will travel between New York City and the Hudson Valley-Catskill Mountain region along a well managed and maintained, modern facility that simultaneously supports long distance access to the southern tier of New York State and provides enhanced mobility for local trips among adjoining communities. Corridor Goal Statements Improve corridor safety for all users and stakeholders. Provide a reliable transportation corridor that accommodates public transit, minimizes delay, and accommodates current and future travel demand for all. Preserve corridor infrastructure investments in a fiscally, sustainable manner. Modernize corridor roadway and interchanges while maintaining the quality of life and preserving the scenic beauty and natural resources. Provide a transportation corridor that supports and enhances the opportunity for continued economic development. www.dot.ny.gov/rt17corridor
