The Lake Champlain Bridge Commission calls on New York and Vermont to coordinate on whether to authorize a third bridge. The annual report notes prior activity stalled and the New York Assembly may be asked this session to decide necessity. The commission cites current bridges between Rouses Point and Albury and Crown Point and Chimney Corners with possible toll-funded construction between Cumberland Head and Grand Isle. The group recorded 233000 in revenue and 170000 in expenditures last year.
