Congressman Himes Pushing for Funds Toward Freight Rail Tunnel
4th District Congressman Jim Himes is pushing for funds toward a freight rail tunnel under New York Harbor.
Congressman Himes says the NY Cross Harbor Rail Tunnel would remove much of the 18 wheeler truck traffic on lower fairfield country highways, and place the freight on the rails.
Himes is asking for a billion dollars to begin the project, which he says would eliminate an estimated 1 million vehicle trips from NYC roads annually.
