Buffalo drivers get a new warning: 2027 Kensington Expressway bridge repairs could bring detours

Buffalo, New York, Jan 15, 2026, 08:45 EST On Wednesday evening, New York State transportation officials updated locals on a plan to renovate five bridges spanning Route 33, the Kensington Expressway, local outlets reported.

New York, Jan 14, 2026, 15:53 EST — Regular session.

Why Via Transportation stock is up today: Goldman upgrade sparks a rebound ahead of Feb. 27 results

NEW YORK, Jan 13, 2026, 13:47 EST — Regular session Shares of Via Transportation jumped roughly 7% to $27.02 in Tuesday afternoon trading following a buy upgrade from Goldman Sachs.

Britain’s rail regulator approved Virgin Trains’ application in October for access to Temple Mills — while rejecting bids from Trenitalia, Evolyn and Gemini — and said it was a first step toward new
