Opposition to the Long Island Sound crossing

An organization called the Coalition Against an Unsound Crossing has revved up the opposition to New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo's plan to build an 18-mile tunnel under the Long Island Sound that would connect Oyster Bay in Nassau County to Rye in Westchester. The project, which is in the beginning stages, would cost some $55 billion and take up to 20 years to complete. Variations of it have been floated for decades but now with Cuomo's consideration, people against it worry the work may move forward.
