New Port Authority Bus Terminal Coming to West Side, Board Says
(DNAINFO) Maya Rajamani | March 25, 2016 — The Port Authority will move forward with plans for a new bus terminal on the West Side of Manhattan, not far from the current terminal on Eighth Avenue that many consider an eyesore.
At a meeting Thursday, the Port Authority’s board of commissioners voted to replace the “aging and outmoded current facility” with a new, “multi-billion dollar” terminal, although they did not specify exactly where the terminal will be built or how much it will cost.
At an October board meeting, three out of four members of a working group for the project agreed Port-Authority owned property between Ninth and 11th avenues would be the best site for the replacement terminal.
