  • Elected Support
    ELECTED SUPPORT May 10, 2016 Commissioner Matthew J. Driscoll New York State Department of Transportation 50 Wolf Road Albany, NY 12232 Dear Commissioner Driscoll: We write to ask that the State contribute 38% of the total estimated cost for the Brooklyn Queens Expressway (BQE) Bridge reconstruction project on Interstate 278 (I-278). This funding is necessary for the rehabilitation, reconstruction, and replacement of 1.5 miles of the BQE from Atlantic Avenue to Sands Street. The BQE is a vital connection for the New York City metropolitan area, carrying more than 190,000 vehicles per day. The 1.5 miles between Atlantic Ave. and Sands St. is supported by 21 bridges and a 0.4 mile portion is comprised of a Triple Cantilever structure. According to NYCDOT, the total estimated cost of the project is $1.7 billion. A 38% contribution would cover $659 million of this cost. This contribution level would be consistent with what NYCDOT has said the State has traditionally funded for construction work on City- owned portions of the highway system in New York City, including the Belt Parkway over the Ocean Parkway project, and for protection of the FDR Drive against marine borers. The City and State have already invested billions of dollars in other portions of the BQE, including the Kosciusko Bridge. This section of the BQE, as described by NYSDOT, “is a critical link of I-278, which is the sole interstate facility in Brooklyn connecting the Robert Kennedy Memorial Bridge (previously named the Triborough Bridge), the Bronx and other points to the east, and the Gowanus Expressway, Staten Island, New Jersey and other points to the west.” Comprehensive investment, including in this portion, is critical to ensuring the BQE can continue to serve New Yorkers as it has done for decades.

  • Fact Sheet Number 1 · April 2002
    Fact Sheet Number 1 · April 2002 The New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) is about to begin preparation of an Alternatives Analysis/ Environmental Impact Statement to identify the best option to rehabilitate or replace the Kosciuszko Bridge. The study will focus on a 1.1-mile section of the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway (BQE), from Morgan Avenue in Brooklyn to the interchange with the Long Island Expressway in Queens, which includes the Kosciuszko Bridge. As part of Interstate 278, the BQE car- ries large numbers of commercial vehicles. It is a vital link in the region’s transportation network, connecting Brooklyn and Queens and intersecting with the Long Island Expressway, the region’s major east-west highway. The elevated segment of the BQE near the Kosciuszko Bridge, which crosses Kosciuszko Bridge over Newtown Creek Newtown Creek, carries over 190,000 vehi- and rehabilitated in the late 1960s, has best possible way to rehabilitate or replace cles on a typical weekday.

Place and time The meeting will be at the Headquarters Plaza Hotel in Morristown, New Jersey, November 9± 14, 1997. The hotel’s phone number is +1 800 225 1942 (± 1941 from inside New Jersey) or +1 973 898 9100, or by fax at +1 973 898 0726. 2. The hotel The Headquarters Plaza Hotel occupies the tallest building in Morristown. It is not affiliated with any chain, but accommodations are similar to major business hotel chains such as Hilton or Marriott. The rooms are newly renovated, and every room has a data jack. There is no surcharge for calls to toll-free numbers. The hotel is part of a complex that includes a multi-screen movie theater, several restaurants, and assorted shops. There are many other restaurants within easy walking distance, with a wide range of cuisines and prices. Also nearby is a commuter train to New York (about an hour each way). As a result, you will probably not need a car during the meeting. However, if you wish to rent a car from Avis (the number of the local branch is +1 973 538 1550) or Enterprise (+1 800 325 8007), they will arrange for you to pick it up and drop it off right at the hotel. There is also a Hertz location nearby.
