ThirdRail: NJCLguy Says: July 11th, 2007 at 10:12 pm People should be asking why Amtrak and NJ Transit are not going to fix or replace Portal Bridge until the new tunnel is complete in ten years. Portal Bridge is used everyday now and will be for the next ten years. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The ultimate question is: Who are the geniuses that thought it was a good idea to build a giant transfer station at the foot of a decrepit, 100 yr old bridge that is prone to failure??
