GWB Bicycling/Walking Path Hours Restricted   

By Webmaster
21 August 2004

Citing security concerns and lack of resources, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey announced last week that, starting on Sunday, August 29, it will close the George Washington Bridge bicycling and walking path overnight:

* August 29 - September 2: closed 9 p.m. - 6 a.m.

* September 3 until further notice: closed midnight - 6 a.m.

To mitigate the effect of the closure, the Port Authority has asked bus companies operating out of the bridge bus terminal on the Manhattan side of the bridge to accommodate bicycles when the path is closed.

If you have questions or comments on this issue, you can reach the Port Authority at 1-800-221-9903 or via their Web site.
