With the warmer weather coming, here is a reminder of some of Clifton Park's outdoor recreational opportunities that we have seen grow and expand over the past ten years.  Click here to learn more.

Recently there has been a lot of reporting in the mainstream media and discussion on social media about the inherent dangers involved in passing stop school buses.  As part of our continuing “Check Your Speed” initiative in Clifton Park to raise awareness about traffic safety we felt now was a good time to remind drivers about the rules involved when a school bus stops with flashing red lights.  The following is taken directly from the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles Driver’s Manual.

Over the years the Town of Clifton Park has been extremely successful in seeking out and winning grant awards.  By leveraging these grant awards, the Town has been able to make numerous additions to our open space and trail systems while also improving our infrastructure.

Currently the Town is managing 18 grant projects totaling $10.2 million.  One of these projects is the Sitterly Road Improvement Project being implemented in partnership with the Town of Halfmoon.  After the completion of the project, drivers on Sitterly Road will benefit from two interconnected traffic signals at Sitterly and Crossing Boulevard, and Sitterly and Woodin Road.  In addition, new turn lanes onto Crossing Boulevard and Woodin Road will alleviate traffic backups during busy times.
