-- New York and New Jersey have crossed a major bridge toward building the Gateway Hudson Tunnel.

According to the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, phase one will cost $2.7 billion. The federal government has agreed to pay 60% of it, which leaves New York and New Jersey to split the difference -- $772.4 million, or $386.2 per state.
