It's also possible that transit experts might have wanted to shut down, but were overruled by politicians who were afraid of the fallout. we will probably never know. We are accustomed in NYC to the premise that subway service to the entire system is a 24/7 given. That is not the case in many cities. I don't know if this is ultimately going to turn out to be a good or a bad move. But I do not see the necessity of operating overnight to serve a small number of people, most of whom should not be out anyway. Organizations that need their workers have or should have plans for holding over essential workers or arranging special means of transport. |
