Port Authority Restores Cell Service In Remaining Tunnels

Manhattan, N.Y. -- Cell phone service has been restored in the Holland and Lincoln tunnels, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey announced.

Cell phone service was cut off in the four motor vehicular tunnels leading into Manhattan in response to the July 7 terrorist bombings in London. It was reinstated in the Brooklyn Battery and Queens Midtown Tunnels on July 11.

Late Today afternoon, executive director of the Port Authority, said that service in the remaining two tunnels was being restored.
