- Editorial | A parkway precedent? Decision on Staten Island roadway could impact NYC
New York City officials are considering opening the Korean War Veterans Parkway to commercial traffic, a move that could break a precedent for limited-access parkways in NYC. The decision faces opposition from Staten Island residents and officials due to infrastructure concerns, including low overpasses and road materials unsuitable for heavy vehicles. The city and state DOTs may approve the change despite fears it could lead to similar modifications on other parkways.
