I've heard of some pretty whacky commutes in or between the outer Boroughs. There are people going everywhere. If nothing else, improving transit in and between the outer Boroughs will give people better access to jobs around the city.How is TriboroRX a diversion? It's the single biggest project to increase mobility in the city, and it would hit a whole bunch of currently underserved areas, and utilize the currently severely under-utilized ROW. Even if the cross-harbor tunnel is realized, there is plenty of capacity for TriboroRX to operate. There is no question that there are some improvements or addition to the Subway system that would be worthwhile to reach under-served areas. However, TriboroRX is still an incredibly important project. The connectivity that it would provide is simply unparalleled. |
