After nearly a decade of reviewing plans, scratching them and then drawing up more, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey has finally zeroed in on a single design for a new Port Authority Bus Terminal.
The plan would demolish the existing terminal and construct a new one in the same location, build an additional facility on the west side of Ninth Avenue for bus storage and to serve commuters while the new terminal is built, construct new ramps and include new private developments on the property to help pay for the proposal.
Construction of the two bus facilities is estimated to take eight years and would have a target completion date of 2031. Officials did not provide a cost estimate, but the planning documents indicate that this proposal is substantially more expensive than the original build-in-place idea pitched more than a year ago.
