Gov. Andrew Cuomo is accelerating construction on New York bridges and tunnels so the work is complete before Amtrak begins emergency repairs at Pennsylvania Station in July.
The order will ensure that all major commuter crossings can be used without cash and all lanes will be open during the work at North America’s busiest rail terminal, Cuomo said June 12 in a statement. Major tunnel and bridge projects will be complete by July 8, he said.
“We’re taking every conceivable step to prepare for Amtrak’s summer of hell,” Cuomo said.
