The Tappan Zee will be in the water within 10 years, IMHO, if they don’t do something. It wasn’t built to be used this long or to carry as much traffic (often bumper-to-bumper, both ways) as it does. The Throgs Neck isn’t looking too hot either at the moment...and as I live on Long Island, I take both those bridges fairly regularly, holding my breath all the way. Perhaps the only good to come out of a tragedy like this is that other cities will wake up to their aging infrastructure...
Geez, Im going on the Tappan Zee Saturday. Re Throggs Neck arent they working on it or just finished. The Whitestone is being worked on now. I am in Pelham Bay/Throggs Neck area.
I HATE going over the Tappan Zee
