Posted by Olog-hai on Thu Apr 22 03:10:40 2010, in response to HBLR 8 Street extension, posted by R42 4787 on Thu Apr 22 01:43:44 2010. NJ Transit makes no mention of it its site under future capital projectsThat's because it's a current capital project under construction. Spending an absurd amount of money for light rail once more, too ($58.4 million for one mile; but I guess that's better than what the system has cost overall). Is there even a proposed completion date? Nope; all that the NJT page says is that it'll be open this year. Amazing that they tore it all apart just to rebuild it again, eh? How much cheaper would it have been to have kept the CNJ main line open as it was, with the only capital spending back in the 60s on a PATH extension to CRRNJ Terminal . . . ? How about the Newark & New York, which could have been serving the Prudential Center nowadays . . . ? |
