I will say this. Dallas has the BEST road system in the state.
Prior to receiving this honor, former governor Cuomo's most visible connection to bridges was the washout and collapse of the Schoharie Creek Bridge in 1987, during Cuomo's tenure as Governor of New York. A big reason this bridge collapsed was because NY State drastically cut back on maintenance spending for NY infrastructure, presumably because bridges and roadways don't vote for Democrats.
Also the Triboro Bridge, which bore that name since it was built by Robert Moses in 1936, was suddenly renamed for another Democrat, and will henceforth be known as the Robert F. Kennedy bridge.
This was done because a member of the Kennedy family made a couple of phone calls. There is no other connection between the late Senator and the bridge, which is one of the most important in the New York City region.
LBJ East???
Why not go whole hog and call it “Jumbo”??? /sarc
I’m sick of LBJ’s legacy.......
AM I the only one who remembers you used to be able to get a decent highway for a million a lane mile? Now they spend 1.6 billion for a 10 mile highway and only get 20 more lane miles? And they already had the right of way!
They used to hide the graft more gracefully.
Those frontage roads have already been started. I hope they fix the eastbound 635 Greenville exit. That’s a constant bottleneck with the lane that is forced to merge.
