where site planning difficulties pushed the estimated cost to $1 million. Railroad policy Although the railroad's policy for parking construction calls for localities to contribute at least 50 of the costs, where the railroad owns the land, it can cover 100 of the costs. There are very few stations where the railroad owns enough land to build a parking lot, according to Metro-North President Peter Stangl. But where it does, the railroad wanted to take advantage of ownership to quickly add much-needed parking, Stangl said. Where the railroad does not own the land, site selection, and purchase or condemnation of land, and contract negotiations with the towns and counties involved can delay construction.

Over the next four years, Metro-North plans to spend $20 million upgrading its parking facilities. So far, Metro-North has agreed to give Westchester County $2.8 million to build about 1,200 new spaces at Port Chester, Tarrytown, Goldens Bridge, Crestwood, Purdys, Croton Falls, and North White Plains. This is 25 of the estimated cost of construction.

"We might as well work on the things we can do now," Stangl said, referring to the plans for lots at Riverdale, New Hamburg, Salisbury Mills-Cornwall, and Port Jervis.

The railroad predicted that the new parking spaces would generate new ridership revenues of about $360,000 a year, offset by new maintenance costs of $176,000, for a net annual gain of $184,000. The Riverdale Station on the Hudson Line in the Bronx has experienced a 61 increase in ridership over the past five years. All of the 146 parking spaces there are filled. The proposal would add 60 spaces. The New Hamburg Station on the upper Hudson Line in Dutchess County also has experienced a huge increase in ridership, 120 since 1982, making it the second fastest growing station on the railroad after Brewster North.

The existing parking lot has spaces for 280 cars, and all but four of them are filled every day. The plan would add 80 new spaces. The Salisbury Mills-Cornwall Station and the Port Jervis Station are both on the Port Jervis Line in Orange County, where ridership has increased 30 since 1983.
