  • Appendix B – List of Public Comments on the Scoping Information Packet
    Appendix B List of Public Comments on the Scoping Information Packet APPENDIX B LIST OF COMMENTS No. Name Date Type Comment 1 Barclay, Suzanne 15-Nov-11 E-mail The Governor, NYS DOT and the FHWA deserve credit for finding a way to accelerate the Tappan Zee Bridge replacement Rockland County Legislature project and making it one of only six transportation projects selected by President Obama to be expedited. Swift replacement of the bridge will help us avert a dreary era of accidents, vehicle weight limits, lane closures and increasing traffic congestion and perhaps worse, as nature and heavy usage cause the bridge’s continued deterioration. In addition, the accelerated project will boost employment in the construction trades that have been so alarmingly affected by our economic doldrums. The proposed design of the replacement bridge solves many of the problems associated with today’s accident and congestion-prone bridge. It will moderately add capacity with a permanent eighth lane, will be much safer with wide shoulders and emergency access lanes, will be less susceptible to congestion caused by slow-climbing trucks, and will provide ample space for crossings by pedestrians and bicyclists. Moreover, we are advised that the future bridge spans are being designed robustly so as to bear the weight of future transit improvements and maximize this public investment. For these reasons, I welcome the announcement about the joint federal-state plan to accelerate the environmental review process for the purpose of obtaining a Record of Decision from the FHWA by next August and issuing construction bids by the second half of 2012.
