Here is a more recent image reflecting the as-built alignments for the East Side Access soft bore tunnels (in Red), East Side Access mixed bore tunnel (in Blue) and the unbuilt NYCT Super Express tunnels (in Green).The right of way for the NYCT Super Express Tracks has not been precluded by the East Side Access work, with the protected right of way extending to 43rd Street. At this point the tunnels must be at some considerable depth, as they would have had to pass underneath the now existing LIRR East Side Access tunnels, new retention walls, and all other associated new below ground obstructions.
