There's no way to upgrade PATH tunnels to accomodate NJT trains. The only option would be to build new ones. Why waste the money that doesn't exist to begin with, when PATH does the job it was ment for quite adequatly?

Path does its job adequately, there is no doubt about that.
But it does not do NJT's job, and THAT is what needs to be thought about.

As a matter of fact, I *did* think about it: NJT/LIRR to WTC

In that scenerio, PATH's current mission does become obslolete, or mostly so, but It also posits the construction of several LARGE park and ride facilities in New Jersey wdirect service to WTC and 33rd.

My Grand Plan also posits the closing of the Lincoln Tunnel to all but busses during rush hour, and even the closing of the Manhattan CBD to outside owned cars.
