It has a 7.8 km (4.8 mi) bridge, an artificial island in the middle of the Øresund strait, and a 4 km (2.5 mi) tunnel nearest to Denmark. A bridge could not be built there for two reasons: height restrictions imposed by adjacent Copenhagen International Airport (the route's path passes the ends of some of the runways; the minimum practical ...

Tolls would rise at the George Washington Bridge and Lincoln and Holland tunnels. PATH fares would also go up, as well as prices at Newark Airport.

The $16.1 billion Gateway project will add two new rail tunnels between NJ and Manhattan, reducing NJ Transit and Amtrak delays in a major corridor
