Jung on Blue Highways, EV charging, and electric air taxi
Jung discusses the Brooklyn Marine Terminal as a hub for the Blue Highways waterborne freight network, the Hunts Point Marine Terminal vision plan, electric air taxi demonstration flights at the downtown Skyport, and the first community-driven freight-focused EV charging depot at Hunts Point.
We are advancing transformative projects at the Brooklyn Marine Terminal, which will become a critical hub for New York's Blue Highways waterborne freight network.
And last year, we released the vision plan for Hunts Point Marine Terminal, another critical link in our Blue Highways network.
In April this year, we took transportation and sustainability to new heights.
With the first ever point-to-point electric vertical takeoff and landing air taxi demonstration flights in New York City's history.
At the downtown Skyport in Manhattan, we are building a low-carbon, multimodal working waterfront where freight will move goods off our railroads.
roads and onto our waterways, creating green jobs while leading the world on the adoption of safe, electrified flight in an urban environment.
The build out of this infrastructure is moving ahead on time and we expect construction to begin this year.
And we are keeping our city moving by expanding our EV charging infrastructure.
Last year, we unveiled New York City's first community
community-driven freight-focused EV charging depot at Hunts Point Distribution Center, advancing the city's transition to cleaner and more efficient ground transportation of goods.
