This is a project that seems like it needs to be funded, but we wouldn’t even be having this conversation if it didn’t cost over 10 billion dollars to dig a 1.3 mile tunnel. If it cost a billion, New York and New Jersey could just pay for it themselves. To put this in perspective, this is $12,000 per daily rider, just for the tunnel. If we can’t get infrastructure costs under control in this country, we aren’t going to even be able to maintain what we’ve got.
