The New York State Thruway Authority will begin work to open the second span of the Governor Mario M. Cuomo Bridge on Friday evening.
TARRYTOWN—Trans-Hudson commuters may finally experience the full benefits of the new Tappan Zee Bridge, now known as the Governor Mario M. Cuomo Bridge. In fact, the ride, which for years has frustrated commuters with sometimes long and difficult traffic delays, could get much better by this Saturday.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced on Tuesday the second span of the $3.9-billion Governor Mario M. Cuomo Bridge will open this Saturday, Sept. 8, 2018, weather permitting. Four lanes of eastbound-bound traffic will be moved onto the 3.1-mile cable-stayed span during an overnight operation beginning Friday. The governor also announced that Hudson Link, a newly enhanced commuter bus service between Rockland and Westchester counties, will begin Oct. 29 along the I-287 corridor and the Governor Mario M. Cuomo Bridge.
