FREDONIA – The New York State Department of Transportation<\/strong> (NYSDOT) has rescinded all approvals for the proposed roundabout project at the U.S. Route 20 and NY Route 60 intersection in Fredonia.<\/p>\n

The decision by DOT comes in the wake of a lawsuit filed in the State Supreme Court by the local McDonald\u2019s restaurant franchise operator, who challenged the determination that the roundabout project was not subject to an environmental impact review.<\/p>\n

The DOT had received design approval for the approximately $3.3 million project which was in the detailed design phase with ambitions for putting it out to bid by late fall, and construction to begin in the spring.<\/p>\n

All that has been put on hold for the indefinite future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
