The Bayonne Bridge – plans to raise the roadway and lift the economy: "This clearance limitation is likely to cause a reduction of port competitiveness and diversion of cargo to other East Coast ports. The future use of larger, newer post-Panamax vessels is expected to reduce environmental impacts, lower shipping costs, provide economies of scale, and offer potential benefits in overall transportation costs to regional, and to national and international customers. Removal of the existing clearance restriction is crucial to maintaining the port’s position as the third largest port in the country, and assuring continued regional economic growth and development."
