The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey finally secured the green light to start its $10 billion replacement and expansion of the world’s busiest bus terminal.

The Federal Transit Administration announced the approval Wednesday following a federally mandated environmental review of the Midtown Manhattan bus terminal replacement. The project construction is slated to start early next year starting with the deck-overs above Dyer Avenue, according to a statement.
