I suspect it's simply to aid in making the cross-border crossing easier.

This past summer I was generally 45min to an hour late on average, but that was on the old schedule. One other thing that may work in your favor is Amtrak should/may be starting its own track work from just south of Albany to Schenectady, not sure on the exact schedule whether it will be during the day or at night.

I haven't heard of any major projects as of yet.I would only modify this statement with one observation - CSX is full swing installing their new signals around and west of Rochester right now, I would presume this project will continue full-swing into the summer.
