Municipalities rely upon federal and state funding to maintain their roads.

The Gateway Tunnel hit a slowdown, and it's not underground. Federal contract reviews and DBE rule changes are holding up funding. Here’s how paperwork is stalling a $16B project.

From the Hudson River to China’s mountain gorges, modern cranes are redefining what’s possible in bridge construction. Here's a look at some of the world's most impressive new bridges.

Work on the Gateway Tunnel continues even as federal funding uncertainty lingers. The $16B project will add nine miles of new passenger rail connecting NJ and NY through a two-tube tunnel beneath the Hudson River.

"...forcing last mile warehouses further from the communities they serve will inevitably stretch the 'last mile' into 'many miles.' This means that a greater number of delivery vans and trucks will be required to travel significantly longer distances to reach residential neighborhoods. The compounding effects on traffic and air quality are profound"

Every day, NJ drivers unknowingly cross over structurally deficient bridges

“With this purchase of 200 new multilevel rail cars, which brings the total of new rail cars ordered since 2018 under the Murphy administration to 374, NJ Transit is taking a major step toward ensuring consistent, dependable service,” said NJ Transit President and CEO Kris Kolluri.

"The Pulaski Skyway, an iconic elevated highway in New Jersey, was opened in 1932 as a critical component of the route linking Jersey City and Newark."

"'The school district is very concerned regarding the Prince Rodgers bridge project and would like to be part of it, not only for school buses to and from school, but after-school activities on North Bridge Street,' said Ring."

"Newark Airport sucks. That's not just an opinion, that's an objective characterization backed by data."

These structures, many of which date back to the 18th and 19th centuries, are more than just infrastructure. They are enduring symbols of craftsmanship, innovation, and history.

"A major portion of the project is the replacement of the Vincent R. Casciano Bridge over Newark Bay with twin cable-stayed bridges."

"The analysis projects substantial traffic growth over the next 30 years, due both to proposed development and long-term population trends."

"...as a corridor state, New Jersey gets a high concentration of truck traffic which puts an extra strain on the infrastructure, and as a coastal state, Jersey is exposed to elevated levels of saltwater in some areas..."
