FTA

Democratic lawmakers from New Jersey and New York want the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) to put a new Hudson River railroad tunnel on the express track.

The price of a new tunnel between New Jersey and New York City has increased by about 6% but remains lower than four years ago.

New Jersey’s House delegation has banded together to urge the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) to keep the agency’s long-standing funding formula when it allocates $14.2 billion in funding to transit agencies in New Jersey, New York and Connecticut.
