"We all remember the so-called 'summer of hell' — overcrowded platforms, constant delays, and a level of dysfunction that made it harder for millions of New Yorkers to get where they needed to go. Those days are over." 👏👏
When transit thrives, New York City thrives — and we’re making the most ambitious transit improvement plan in history a reality. amny.com/opinion/mta-fi…

The Congestion Relief Program isn’t just transforming Manhattan from 60th street and below. It’s changing our entire city for the better. Just take it from Roger, a Queens parent who almost moved his family out of NYC if not for the safer streets this program has delivered.

Take it from a Queens parent: six months in, congestion pricing is working. Safer streets. Less traffic. A stronger economy. Better transit. That’s what progress looks like.

"The Gimbels Passageway ... once linked the Seventh Ave. lines to the Sixth Ave. lines. Reopening this passage would eliminate an estimated 100,000 daily surface-level transfers. These kinds of walkable connections make a complex city function better." We agree, reopen Gimbels!
