To my knowledge there is no major road work scheduled between Erie, PA and Syracuse, NY on the Thruway.
You could take I-86/NYS 17 out of Erie to NYS 36N in Hornell to I-390N in Dansville to Rochester and avoid the tolls. I-86 has multiple bridge rehab job around Salamanca and I-390 is not a good drive compared to the Thruway even though it avoids the tolls. But, it is an equally timed drive for the most part.
