Yes, but.It should have been built so as to leave a cleared space to build 3rd and 4th tracks. The old builds made provision for the future, seems like the new people DGAF about that. As it is one problem shuts down the line. When the line is 13 stops rather than 3, that will be an issue. AND The remainder should be 100% paid for by NYC. We spent enough to build the entire line on 3 stops, because we (collective we, not personally) treated the project like a smash'n grab at a jewelry shop. The grifter ethic was so strong that it even after running it up to twice the time and zX the cost, the new section's fire alarms weren't working, the new signals broke the first week, and the power went out due to a single point failure within 2 months of the thing opening. All that, and it averages less than the speed of a running horse. We now have no right to ask for another dime for subway construction. |
