New York and New Jersey recently signed a memorandum of understanding to reach a cost-sharing agreement for the construction of the Gateway project at the bottom of the Hudson River.
The Hudson River Railroad is one of the busiest sections in the United States, with about 450 trains per day and more than 200,000 passengers per day. Passenger rail tracks damaged by Hurricane Sandy and plans to dig a new tunnel to expand passenger capacity have been delayed by political disputes between the two states and the federal government.
The agreement reached by the two states heralds that the project has finally moved forward, and construction is expected to begin next summer; New York Governor Kathy Hochul said the memorandum is an important step in the implementation of the vision; NSW Governor Phil Murphy (Phil Murphy) He said that the project is not only the most important project in NSW, but also the most important project in the United States, and the signing of the memorandum is an important milestone.
