How Will You Use The Shared-Use Path on the New NY Bridge?

Hey Rockland and Westchester, get your two cents in — The bridge design team is doing a survey.

HUDSON VALLEY, NY — Take a survey about the Shared Use Path across the Tappan Zee along the new bridge. Would you mostly walk it, bike it, roller skate? Do you want to sit and stare at the river or marvel at the bridge itself? Would you bring all your out-of-town guests?

The New NY Bridge project team is seeking your input to better understand how the community will utilize the new Shared Use Path to be built on the westbound span following completion of the eastbound span in 2018. Features of the bicycle and pedestrian path will include six overlooks—or resting points—above the Hudson River; visitor parking and pavilions; and interpretive exhibits, art, and signage.
