U.S. Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx called for an urgent meeting with the governors of New York and New Jersey to revive work on Amtrak’s stalled Gateway tunnel project under the Hudson River.
The condition of rail tubes linking the states is “a major threat to the region and our nation’s transportation system,” Foxx said Monday in a letter to New Jersey’s Chris Christie and Andrew Cuomo of New York.
