Great example... there was also an effort to expand the Tappan Zee bridge from the 1950s, adding a couple lanes was going to cost 5-10x the original iirc.
On the plus side, we have some of the cleanest air and water any civilization has ever enjoyed, so regulation isn't all bad. Maybe the Boring Company can tunnel that out for a mere $250M.
