Cayuga 79 detour


Recommended Posts

Could someone tell me if the rt 79 hill going down  into ithaca from the east is still under construction,Last time over i was re-routed all over cornell. .. It was not a fun trip not to mention the poor trailer and boat. Hate going through ithaca..to t-falls. Thanks for any info.

Yes, still under construction.  Here's an easier way around than the Cornell route... Traveling west on 79, turn left on Burns Rd. and then right on Coddington Rd.  Coddington will take you all the way into Ithaca.  It eventually becomes Hudson St. and you can take that til it ends then a right on Aurora St. (pass the commons) and your next left (Seneca St.) puts you back on 79.  You still go through Ithaca, but it's better than the Cornell route.

Getting back, is a little different getting through Ithaca.  Ithaca never makes it easy!  Once you make it to Hudson St. though, it is the same.  Getting to Hudson on the way back... the normal way without construction would be to take Fulton St. to a left on Green St. (79 East) but instead, go past Green and take Fulton (stay in left lane across Rt. 13) to Clinton St.  Take Clinton St. past the Police Department and shortly after, turn right on Aurora St. Then, take your next left onto Columbia St (very small street, if too small for your rig, you can take the left after that).  Then, your next right is Hudson St. (becomes Coddington).  Then everything is the same from there.  Coddington all the way out to a left on Burns Rd., then a right on 79 East.
