John Ceretto, R-I-Lewiston, participated in a joint appearance Monday with U.S. Sen. Charles Schumer and Niagara Falls Mayor Paul Dyster to announce support for a fast tracking of federal funds to demolish a southern portion of the Robert Moses Parkway.

Ceretto credited the plan as a boon for residents of Niagara Falls and a project that can create jobs in Niagara County.
