MTA’s Lhota says subway to N.J. won’t happen in ‘our lifetime’
A proposal to extend New York City’s No. 7 subway line under the Hudson River to New Jersey probably won’t happen in “our lifetime,” Metropolitan Transportation Authority Chairman Joseph Lhota said.
Lhota, speaking at a meeting of the New York Building Congress in Manhattan today, said the No. 7 train extension would be too expensive, require building rail yards in New Jersey and would face pricing issues. (Dopp, Bloomberg)
