Tappan Zee Bridge

[Lowerdeck]

There has been a plan recently proposed for replacing the three mile long Tappan Zee Bridge. It may be in excess of 6.5 billion dollars, and may not be completed for a decade if not longer. One proposal had a rail line going between Rockland and Westchester Counties in the bridge's median, an extension of Metro North.

Something on this bridge however needs to be done, and soon. This could be one of the scariest bridges in the country now. Yesterday I was coming across the bridge southbound and the traffic was crawling due to the giant metal plates in the middle of the road covering holes and other patchwork repairs.
