Portal North Bridge Project: America’s $2.4 BILLION Fix To A Failing Rail System

Описание: Portal North Bridge Project: America’s $2.4 BILLION Fix To A Failing Rail System
Thousands of people depend on the aging Portal Bridge, a key but crumbling link between New Jersey and New York City. Prone to mechanical failures and infamous for its bottlenecks, this outdated relic has long been a symbol of America's infrastructure woes. But now, a transformative solution is finally underway. The Portal North Bridge Project, a bold endeavor, promises not just to replace the old with the new—but to redefine rail travel along one of the busiest passenger corridors in the nation. Faster, higher, more reliable, and built for the future, this project is a flagship project of the Gateway Program. It aims to eliminate the choke point that has plagued Northeast Corridor rail travel for decades.
