AI Summary

This bill requires the Port Authority of New York to conduct a study on the alignment of the Outerbridge Crossing, a bridge connecting New York and New Jersey. The study aims to determine the feasibility and steps needed to physically widen the bridge in order to increase traffic flow. The study will examine the surrounding private properties that may need to be acquired by the Port Authority to facilitate the bridge expansion. The Port Authority must report its findings, including potential actions and cost estimates, to the governors of New York and New Jersey before the existing study on the Outerbridge Crossing expires. This bill will only take effect if New Jersey enacts similar legislation.
