Let's just say that it's August of 2012. The 2012 Summer Olympics are about to begin in the NY/NJ area (if the Olympic Committee selects us), The new WTC complex in Downtown NYC is done or close to that. The Newark Stadium and possibly the Nets Stadium in Brooklyn and the Jets Stadium will be built long before then. not to mention that the Jacob Javits will be remodeled and expanded before 2012.
With these important events happening and msotly finished before or on 2012, what projects do you thing NJT will finish by then (realistically)
I think that NJT will have the Boonton and NJ Coast Lines will be fully electrified, MOM maybe W Trenton will be on line, Cutoff is still in the air and the Hudson Tunnels are a strong possibility that they will be finished. Hoboken Terminal will be ready by 2007 or on that year. All light rail/subway projects I beleive will be finished by 2012.
On a side note I think the MTA will have the 7 line extension to PABT, NYP and the Javits up and running or underway along with the 2nd Ave Subway project.
What are your opinions? Hopefully NJT will wise up and get two thirds or atleast half of the projects on their to do list on line by or on 2012. The rest of the NJ/NY area is upgrading and revitalizing. I only hope NJT will do the same.
