Hudson Reporter: "The two-lane roadway just completed is intended as the northbound road, but the PANYNJ said one of the lanes will allow for southbound traffic while two additional lanes are installed. The road is expected to be open to motorists by the second quarter of 2017. The old road underneath is due to be removed in 2017, allowing more navigational clearance, while a two-lane southbound roadway is due for completion in 2019. The completion date was postponed in 2015 due to inclement weather in the winters of 2014 and 2015 as well as unanticipated repairs and modifications to the bridge."
