New York S09216 directs multiple transportation authorities to study the structural integrity of specific bridges to withstand impacts from large.

New York S09216 mandates the Department of Transportation, the Bridge Authority, the Triborough Bridge and Tunnel Authority, the Thruway Authority, and the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey to conduct studies on certain bridges. These studies aim to assess whether the bridges have the structural integrity to withstand impacts from large vessels, including cargo ships, oil tankers, and cruise ships. Each authority must evaluate specific bridge characteristics and conditions, such as age, vessel traffic, and structural support details.
