5 Things You Didn’t Know About The Gateway Tunnel Project
Chip in $5 to support Mikie’s fight to save our infrastructure!

1. Studies show that a collapse or long term closure of the existing tunnels could cause a national recession and cost the economy $100 million per day.

2. More commuters use Penn Station every day than Newark, JFK and LGA combined.

3. Limiting access to one of the two tunnels will decrease train traffic by 75%, forcing tens of thousands more people to use roads and airports.

4. The Portal Bridge, which carries 450+ NJ Transit and Amtrak trains daily, fails to close properly one of every seven times it opens.

5. Every year of delay is expected to add more than $500 million to the price tag of repair and construction.

These are startling figures, but they boil down to one simple truth: inaction is not an option.

Mikie has been fighting to make the Gateway Tunnel project a priority since before she even took her oath of office. She has met with Democrats and Republicans, spoken repeatedly on the floor of the House, and pushed her caucus forward to get the funding we need.
