South Amboy just got a significant boost of $800,000 for its long-awaited ferry terminal building.

This funding, however, won't be used for the actual construction of the ferry building. Instead, it will go towards environmental remediation and infrastructure development, including the construction of waterfront bulkheads, a seawall, access roadways, curbing, sidewalks, parking, a pavilion, site lighting, and water, sewer, gas, and electric infrastructure.

The $800,000 is part of a larger federal spending bill that passed in the House of Representatives on March 6 for Fiscal Year 2024.

Here's a breakdown of the 13 projects that received funding:

The funding will help rebuild and repair infrastructure, support low-emissions public transit, and improve coastal resiliency, according to Congressman Pallone.
