The SI tunnel will never be built..unless the FEDS step up to build it. This tunnel is of great importance,which is why its taking so long for it to be constructed.. it would have to built with two levels like the 63rd st line..due to the much needed freight traffic not being able to directly access the city from new Jersey without trucks or car float..How would a tunnel from lower manhattan to Staten Island be able to address the freight issue? I do agree with your idea though. Activate the North shore SIR and build a new underground station @ St. George. Run the tunnel under the narrows to the Bay ridge line. Connect the line to the LL of the culver/crosstown line at Church. And why does it need to be double level? Build Rapid transit cars that can mix with freight and subway cars. It will make a lot more options feasible for the outerboroughs. |
