A day after cancelling a new rail tunnel under the Hudson River, New Jersey Governor Chris Christie says he'll take another look at it. Christie promised a two-week review of several options that could salvage the tunnel after meeting with U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood. But the Republican governor insisted the project was "financially not viable" and likely to exceed its budget.

Speaking at a hospital ribbon-cutting in Newark, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who is just returning from a multi-day midwest campaign swing with fellow Republicans, says he hasn't had a chance to meet with his staff or review the final numbers on the ARC commuter train tunnel from New Jersey to New York.

If you think the subways are late, dirty and expensive now, imagine what it was like 25 years ago. In honor of the Straphangers' Campaign's latest report on the State of the Subways we took a look at one of the earliest documents the organization produced.

Despite widespread service cuts, the subway system has gotten mildly better. That's according to the Straphangers Campaign, which says the subway's gotten a little cleaner, a little more reliable, and its announcements are clearer this year compared to the year before.

New Jersey legislators approved a $1.7 billion bond deal on Monday that should send thousands of construction workers back to their jobs.

A subway line on Manhattan's Upper West Side was suspended for an hour and a half during this morning's rush hour because of heavy rain.

Expect another weekend of delays, diversions, backtracking and shuttle buses if you're taking the subway.  New York City Transit says 16 of the 19 weekend lines will be disrupted as contractors rush to complete construction work.

WNYC wants to hear about your weekend subway experience. Just text "SUBWAY" TO 30644 and record your stories about getting around this weekend.

The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey is taking steps to attract more international passengers to Stewart Airport in the Hudson Valley.

Advocates for the environment and mass transit say Thursday marks the 25th anniversary of the defeat of Westway.

It was on September 30th, 1985, when the federal government allowed New York to use more than a billion dollars slated for a proposed expressway along Manhattan's West Side for mass transit instead.

Developer Bruce Ratner said Tuesday morning what many of his critics and even some of his associates have been saying for years: there is no way the entire Atlantic Yards project will be done in 10 years.

The MTA is planning to install thousands of columns throughout its subway stations that riders can use to report emergencies or ask for travel information.

The memorial observance is taking place in Zuccotti Park, kitty corner from the World Trade Center site. This past year, the site has gone through a dramatic transformation as structures have finally started emerging from the ground. WNYC's Matthew Schuerman has the latest on the progress of the rebuilding.

Over the past year, key elements in the redevelopment of the World Trade Center site and the 9/11 Memorial have finally emerged above street level. But the fate of other pieces of the site remain uncertain. WNYC's annotated map of site provides details on each building on the site, its developer and the status of development.

Subway riders set off alarms on emergency exits at subway stations so frequently that they are ignored or even disabled.

Gov. David Paterson, Mayor Michael Bloomberg and developer Larry Silverstein gave their annual update on the progress of rebuilding the World Trade Center Tuesday. This time, there was actually something to see from the windows overlooking the site.

A labor union has won a 15-month fight for the right to represent about 300 employees at an E-ZPass customer service center on Staten Island. The National Labor Relations Board announced late Wednesday that the employer's objections to the union election, held in May 2009, were without merit.

A new campus for biotech and pharmaceutical companies on Manhattan's East Side is slated to open in late September.

The Alexandria Center for Science and Technology at East River Science Park will offer scientific firms valuable laboratory space — and, according to its developer and government leaders, help turn New York into a biotech research hub.

Many more people than expected cashed in on the rebates Con Edison was offering for purchasing energy efficient air conditioners.

Earlier this summer, Con Ed offered $30 back to customers who bought new Energy Star window units for their homes. This wasn’t a typical marketing gimmick meant to pump up sales: Con Ed doesn’t manufacture air conditioners but it is trying to reduce energy consumption and agreed to the rebates as part of a plan required by state regulators.

Tolls for out-of-state drivers on MTA bridges and tunnels could go up to $7 under a new proposal from the authority—but E-ZPass users from New York State would keep paying the current $4.57 for major East River crossings.

The idea is one of two options the MTA’s considering for its bridges and tunnels. The other is more traditional: increase tolls across the board, for cash and E-ZPass, in-state and out-of-state, by about 10 percent.

The new skyscraper in Midtown won't just change the views of and from the Empire State Building.
