MTA is losing money and there is many factors to this.For example and (this is widespread problem including local buses): The person dips the MetroCard in and the reader says no money on the MetroCard, but the person have $5 bill on hand except no coins and explain to the B/O for the reason. Yet B/O let the person ride for free. $5.00 to pay the If and it is a big If, the MTA is going to raise the express fare, they will have to put paper money farebox next to the coin/ MC farebox for the convenience of the passenger who dont have a MetroCard, coins. but the passenger has green paper money surely they want to put inside the farebox somehow. MTA likes green paper money and they sure can use some. |
