NEW YORK (WCBS 880) — The Cross Bronx Expressway could be in line for improvements thanks to President Joe Biden's infrastructure proposal.
"The Cross Bronx has long been the scourge of the south Bronx,” Congressman Ritchie Torres tells WCBS 880’s Steve Burns.
Biden is calling for a $20 billion fund in his infrastructure package to help reconnect communities split in two by highways and Torres says the area around the Cross Bronx is a prime candidate.
"The Cross Bronx Expressway has left in its wake decades of displacement, disinvestment, as well as environmental jeopardies,” Torres said. "The Cross Bronx Expressway both figuratively and literally has been a structure of racism.”
