A New York motorist recorded water leaking into the Lincoln Tunnel on Tuesday evening, July 14, as he drove toward New Jersey.
Anthony Consiglio shared this video on his Instagram story as he drove through the tunnel, which runs under the Hudson River to connect Manhattan with Weehawken, New Jersey.
“Well, that’s concerning,” he says in the video.
The Port Authority, which operates the underwater tunnel said that a water main rupture was reported in a facility room in the Center Tube on Tuesday evening. It was fixed and the water was pumped out as designed.

Looks scary to me. I never liked tunnels – you’re under all that water and what if it somehow collapses?
Gov, Cuomo where are you. Our insane mayor is aiding and abetting this mayhem that is destroying our city. Without a lawful NYC where people can live and work in peace, NYS is dead
I don’t think a tunnel has any water directly above it. They are bored beneath the river bed.
I never liked bridges – you’re over all that water and what if it somehow collapses?
#1, do you drive a car ? Many more people die on the roads than tunnels flooding. In fact , I challenge you to find me one person who died in a flooded tunnel. Millions die on the road in car crashes every year. Just a thought.
