Significant economic activity already generated by Hudson Tunnel Project

New research estimates construction of the Hudson Tunnel Project will generate 95,000 jobs – 20,000 more than previously projected.

Everyone cheers when politicians and public officials announce a new megaproject to deliver public services, but that’s just the beginning of the process.

How can advocates and governments help megaprojects avoid the myriad pitfalls between approval and construction, which may take more than a decade and span several political cycles? This panel will explore the challenges of delivering massive infrastructure projects – including transportation, renewable energy and other sectors – and discuss best practices for contractors, advocates and agencies to better develop, facilitate, and ultimately deliver transformative projects on time and on budget.
