It's nice to see large public works projects can still be done in this country today, replacing obsolete, outdated infrastructure with new ones. On the way to and from Ohio the past couple times, I've seen some of the steel being used on this bridge being hauled on large trucks on the Southern Tier Expressway. I've driven past the construction site once recently, and it's impressive to be sure. Let's not forget that unlike CalTrans, the steel being used in the new NY Bridge is American Steel, made in Indiana, not China.
You can say what you want about him, Governer Cuomo has been great for the State of New York, we get a new Tappan Zee Bridge, Upstate is finally getting funding for roads and bridges, NYC gets the Second Avenue subway, Buffalo and the Capital Region are growing again thanks to companies like Solarcity, Regeneron, Global Foundries, GE, and others.
Nice to see after decades of neglect that our infrastructure is finally getting much needed attention. It's also nice to see that despite politics and everything, great public works projects can still be accomplished.
