The reason for the delays was signal breakdowns in the Montague tunnel when they tried the temporary repairs after the superstorm. That's one of the reasons they did the permanent repairs. There were plenty of times before the storm where they had all three lines using the tunnel weekends with no delays. They must now have enough confidence in the just completed permanent repairs to do this again. The Manhattan Bridge has had tremendous wear and tear on it for the past 13 months and engineers must carefully inspect it to make sure it remains safe. |
