That doesn't work everywhere. While the legislation creating the NYCTA specifically exempted the agency from PSC oversight, the Boston MBTA was kept under the jurisdiction of the Mass Public Utilities Commission at leas according to a MBTA supervisor I knew there. The only authorities the constituent agencies of the MTA can't escape are the FRA in the case of rail operations and the ICC regarding buses. It might not be a bad idea to place the MTA and its sub agencies back under the supervision of a regulatory state agency to compel the MTA to meet a strict set of standards. |
