The @PCACriders has a new report out on "BRT for the Boroughs: How the MTA & City Hall can transform your bus ride," that is full of good ideas for improving the effectiveness of New York's bus network. pcac.org/report/brtfort…
ICYMI, the NYS Legislature recently passed a law that would require two-person crews on all trains. One-person operation, however, has proven safe & effective around the country and the world. This bill would hurt riders and lock NY transit in the past. etany.org/statements/imp…
While replacing the 40+ year old M3s is vital, this order doesn't get what NY needs: a single car capable of supporting both overhead electrification and regional through-running. etany.org/statements/too…
We're getting new trains! The MTA has approved the purchase of new M-9A rail cars, which will feature glass windows, USB ports, and enhanced accessibility — including automatic bathroom doors. The first set is expected to enter service in 2030.
