Potential failure turned to success in Port Authority Project

Success can be the product of a near failure. The Port Authority of NY & NJ can certainly attest that pursuing a successful solution to counter a collision with failure has been very rewarding. It all took place at its Downtown PATH Restoration Program at Exchange Place Station, Jersey City, New Jersey. Here, the Port Authority met a set of challenging excavation conditions that were required for constructing underground crossovers and lengthening the station’s existing platforms, and which involved a radical change of procedures when the initial plan was proving inadequate for the conditions experienced.
