Transportation and Infrastructure: 

  • NJ-11 depends heavily on reliable infrastructure—from roads and bridges to NJ Transit and sewer systems—and much of it is aging or failing.
  • Increasingly severe storms have devastated communities across our state, underscoring the urgent need to strengthen and modernize our infrastructure.
  • The tunnels connecting New Jersey to New York are in critical condition, and our district cannot afford further delays in replacing them.
  • In Congress, Brendan will fight to bring federal tax dollars back to New Jersey to invest in major projects like the Gateway Tunnel and NJ Transit upgrades.
  • He will be sure to fund projects like the Route 24 and Columbia Turnpike interchange project for inclusion in an appropriation as recommended by the House Transportation & Infrastructure Committee.
  • He will work to protect and secure the funding necessary to complete the Gateway Tunnel on time, improving safety, quality of life, and creating tens of thousands of jobs.
  • He will champion multi-year transportation funding bills to give NJ Transit the stable, long-term support it needs—not just temporary fixes.
  • He will push for sustainable, climate-resilient infrastructure investments, including electric buses, modern rail equipment, and flood-resistant systems, to protect our communities from worsening storms.

In Congress, Brendan will restore NJ-11’s failing infrastructure through pushing for electric buses, modern rail equipment, and flood-resistant systems to protect our communities from worsening storms. The tunnels connecting New Jersey to New York are in critical condition, so Brendan will fight to bring federal tax dollars back to New Jersey to invest in major projects like the Gateway Tunnel and NJ Transit upgrades. By working to protect and secure the funding necessary to complete the Gateway Tunnel on time, he will improve safety, quality of life, and create tens of thousands of jobs. Additionally, he will fund projects like the Route 24 and Columbia Turnpike interchange project for inclusion in an appropriation as recommended by the House Transportation & Infrastructure Committee. Brendan will fight for multi-year transportation funding bills to give NJ Transit the stable, long-term support it needs—not just temporary fixes.
