New York is considering constructing either a bridge or tunnel across the Long Island Sound, connecting mainland New York to Long Island. The proposal has existed since 1938 and was seriously pursued throughout the 1960’s and 1970’s. A connection would have massive benefits. It would decrease congestion, provide jobs, widen regional markets and increase employment opportunities. The proposal was explored by current governor Andrew Cuomo, but was eventually cancelled.
