Maybe.But,then again, every one of those tractor-trailers is a job someone has. Pulling freight to feed families, right? Build the tunnel, and that will displace jobs. Same thing for the Staten Island ferry, and why the State and city won't finish the Narrows Subway Tunnel, or build a tunnel under the New York Bay. Jobs. Building a tunnel Will kill jobs. The Ferry is Free, now, being paid via subsidies. Large boats to carry a large amount of people at one time. Same thing for the river crossings. The distance between the GW Bridge and the Lincoln Tunnels, and Holland Tunnel. The Path Tubes and the North River Tunnels. It's All a game,to suck up the most money out of the patrons, provide jobs at the same time for its employees (now with EZPass, things are somewhat different). The Governor of New York, thought she was slick, by throwing in the Cross Harbor Freight Study into the IBX mix. She knows this tunnel will NEVER be built,at Anytime. She was PADDING THE BILL, THROWING SOMEONE A BONE Sometimes, you gotta grease a few palms along the way. Politically, you won't see Any movement on the CHF line. Politically speaking, you Won't see any movement on Any tunnels to Staten Island because of the Narrows Bridge, or any of the three bridges the PA owns. You Will never see the Bridge across the Hudson at 125th at that would have been built to connect to the Triboro Bridge. This is Also one of the reasons Why you will never see a "complete" Second Avenue Subway,or at least the most important part of the route through Midtown. This is why you will never see New Subways in the outer boroughs, even though the MTA knows they are needed. It's ALL BULLSHIT. |
