Pickup near or at Airports
Renting in Syracuse doesn't have to be complicated. Before you buckle up and take off down Route 11, here are a few tips for driving, parking, and getting by while you're in Syracuse.
Cruising in Syracuse won't usually cause problems, but a few of its otherwise well-maintained roads are in poor condition. The low default speed limit of 30 miles per hour helps prevent potential problems, but watch out for reduced speeds in pedestrian areas and around major attractions.
Winter requires extra caution, so be sure to look for snow tires when you rent in Syracuse. Drive slowly, leave extra space from the car ahead of you, and remember that the Parkway Bridge freezes faster than the main roads.
Street parking is metered from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday. Parking is free on Sundays and evenings, but a bustling nightlife means spots are competitive. You can pay through the meter or your phone.
If you're staying in Syracuse for an extended period, consider getting a monthly parking permit. Most garages and parking lots in the downtown area offer them, even if you're not a resident.
Yes, cashless tolling is an integral part of the New York State transportation infrastructure, which includes the New York State Thruway that passes through Syracuse. Costs vary depending on your entry and exit points; the greatest tolls add up for travelers to and from neighboring Pennsylvania.
Need to refuel before embarking on a twilight adventure? Dozens of options await no matter where you're staying in Syracuse. You'll find plenty of familiar names along I-690, including Sunoco, Speedway, Kwik Fill, and Circle K.
Driving an electric sedan? You've got plenty of options, too. EVolve NY, Tesla Supercharger, and Electrify America all maintain several locations throughout the heart of Syracuse, making it easy to recharge wherever you are.
Though the downtown area is easily walkable, a rental car is the best way to see everything that Syracuse has to offer. Many top attractions, like the Seneca Lake wine tasting tour and Watkins Glen State Park, are an hour's drive or more from the town's center.
