Cash-Strapped Port Authority Paid $86 Million In Overtime, Audit Finds

Port Authority Raising Tolls While Paying $86M In Overtime

MANHATTAN -- The cash-strapped Port Authority, which recently unveiled a proposed massive toll and PATH fare hikes, dished out a whopping $86 million in overtime pay last year, according to the state comptroller's office.

"Overtime flows like water at the Port Authority, and management has no clear strategy to achieve its own benchmarks and goals for curbing costs," state Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli said in a statement Wednesday.
