About Rochester

Rochester, NY, also known as the "Flower City," is a vibrant and historic city located in western New York. It is home to a rich transportation history, playing a significant role in the development of freight transportation in the United States. In the early 19th century, Rochester became a major transportation hub due to its strategic location between the Erie Canal and the Great Lakes. The Erie Canal, which connected the Hudson River to Lake Erie, allowed for the transportation of goods and materials, boosting Rochester's economy and making it a thriving center for trade.

Today, Rochester continues to be an important transportation hub, with a well-connected network of highways, railways, and airways. The Greater Rochester International Airport serves as a major cargo hub, facilitating the transportation of goods and products to and from the region. The city is also located along the busy Interstate 90 corridor, which is a major route for freight transportation across the country. Additionally, Rochester is served by multiple railway lines, including the CSX Transportation and Norfolk Southern Railway, further enhancing its connectivity to the national freight network.
