Two years ago today, the Gateway Development Commission secured the full funding needed to advance the Hudson Tunnel Project—one of the largest infrastructure investments in U.S. history. Since then, construction has continued across multiple Gateway Program projects, moving New Jersey and New York closer to a modern, more reliable rail connection beneath the Hudson River.

The Gateway Program awarded a $712 million contract for the New Jersey rail approach to the new Hudson River Tunnel. The work includes building bridges, embankments and rail infrastructure that will connect the future tunnel to the Northeast Corridor.

The Secaucus-Meadowlands Transitway would create a dedicated transit link between Secaucus Junction, the Meadowlands, and Jersey City. NJ Transit has now approved $22.2 million to move the project closer to reality.

A 34-story tower is set to replace a Jersey City parking lot with 360 apartments, including 90 affordable units. Another major step forward for transit-oriented growth in Journal Square.

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.

The Portal North Bridge Project is one of New Jersey’s most important transportation projects, replacing the century-old Portal Bridge over the Hackensack River in New Jersey. The existing bridge is a major bottleneck and source of delays to both NJ Transit and Amtrak due to its aging mechanical and electrical components.
