Drill Begins Excavation of Hudson River Tunnel
Construction has begun on the $16 billion Gateway tunnel beneath the Hudson River, connecting New Jersey and Manhattan, with a massive tunnel-boring machine now operational. The project aims to replace the 116-year-old tunnel serving around 200,000 daily passengers, and is expected to take about ten years to complete despite previous political and financial delays. Officials emphasized the tunnel's significance to regional and national economy, with federal support temporarily halted but later restored through legal rulings.
