Keep in mind that the Verrazano Bridge has six lanes each way. Even with the HOV lanes on the expressway, that leaves four lanes with nowhere to go. Those four lanes need to be connected to the parkway or else Staten island will always be a mess. Maybe putting mass transit down the median isn't such a bad idea, but the parkway runs fairly close to SIRT, and some may argue that a parkway shouldn't have an ugly rail line down the middle. However, the parkway is really a parkway in name and regulations only-- what was built was nothing like Moses' earlier parkways; it resembles a modern expressway more than a more traditional parkway. |
