Transportation Infrastructure of New Jersey New Jersey (Gov. Whitman’s 1998 plan, NJ FIRST). $30 billion, 12-year transportation vision. – “FIX IT FIRST” Eliminate bridge deficiencies on national highways. Repair deficient state highways. Resolve flooded state road problems. – “PLAN TODAY” Construct missing highway links. Develop intermodal connections. Construct and complete light rail lines. CAIT RUTGERS
