Considering the heftier price and lower probability of the West Shore Line materializing, work on studying it should probably abandoned in favor of pursuing the more realizable North Shore Line.Probably the goal should be to piggyback the North Shore Line project on to the plans for a replacement for the present Bayonne Bridge. Certain lobbies favoring that project can be used to extract funding from DC. It's certainly a porky row to hoe, but these days, it probably represents the more realistic way of actually realizing anything. |
