===Transportation=== In July 2017, the approval was granted by state legislators to the plan proposed by [[Governor of New York|New York Governor]] [[Andrew Cuomo]] to add a third railroad track to the [[Long Island Rail Road]] corridor between the communities of [[Floral Park (LIRR station)|Floral Park]] and [[Hicksville, New York|Hicksville]] in Nassau County. The nearly US$2 billion [[transportation infrastructure]] enhancement project was expected to accommodate anticipated growth in rail ridership and facilitate commutes between New York City and Nassau and Suffolk counties on Long Island.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2017/07/12/lirr-third-track-approved/|title=New York Senate Republicans OK $1.9B In Funding For 3rd LIRR Track|author=Sophia Hall|publisher=CBS New York|date=July 12, 2017|access-date=July 15, 2017|archive-date=July 12, 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170712174243/http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2017/07/12/lirr-third-track-approved/|url-status=live}}</ref> The [[Long Island Expressway]], [[Northern State Parkway]], and [[Southern State Parkway]] are the primary east–west [[controlled-access highway]]s in Nassau County.
