Why no GSV on the GWB or the Bayonne Bridge?

(1/3) > >>

ixnay:
The PA has been nice enough to let Google 's camera truck photograph the Lincoln, Holland, (new) Goethals, and Outerbridge.  Why not the George or the Bayonne? 

I remember a few years ago this being discussed but I'm too lazy to search  :D  Please reiterate.

LilianaUwU:
I'm pretty sure the TL;DR is post-9/11 restrictions, though I could be wrong.

1995hoo:
There is no legally enforceable restriction, but the Port Authority pretends they can ban photography and Google decided to be imtimidated by that.

jmacswimmer:
I think the Verrazzano is also GSV-less, but it's under MTAB&T control unlike the 2 PANYNJ bridges in the OP.

It does lack GSV imagery for most of the span, as does the Battery Tunnel (though not the Midtown Tunnel and not the other TBTA bridges—the Whitestone and the Throgs Neck have imagery, for example).
