TriboroRX could have a greater benefit in terms of cost/mileNobody has yet projected a realistic cost/mile figure for the TriboroRX or its operation. Remember, it's going to have to operate under FRA regulations. I have tried to get a handle on the benefit. As I noted, it's premise is to aid 2.4% of the workforce. That's only 80K workers. what are the benefits of ONE subway extension vs TriboroRX? It doesn't take much to reach that many workers with a single extension 2 to 4 mile extension in areas that are not currently served. |
