by concrete barriers which would keep operation costs down by limiting the number of police needed to enforce it problem is the White said would need additional construction to provide An open lane

directions as far east as Exit 64 and as far west as the Jericho Turnpike Exit 40 White has the power to impose the lane restrictions even if there is widespread opposition because they do not require approval by the State Legislature He stopped short of saying he would do so but claimed naysayers are evaporating" as motorists become more familiar with the concept "When we started these discussions
