The "deep bore" was only a way to drive up cost.Honestly, the SAS did not have to cost so much,if tried and true methods were retained. The MTA knew that, the 10 year construction of just 3 stations, rebuilding a 4th..5 billion dollars? The Entire 1970s SAS was a third of that,with the Queens Bypass tossed in,With the Archer subway to South Jamaica! Deliberate cost overruns,over design, Done to impress, not improve. The 106th St. Station SHOULD HAVE BEEN BUILT, THERE WAS MORE THAN ENOUGH MONEY TO DO IT. YET...Well, it is what it is. The problem here is the MTA is the Only game in town, which is unfair and unfortunate to the rest of the city. We need another agency capable of Subway building, Apart from the MTA network. We need a LIGHT RAIL DIVISION,instead of SBS Bullshit. We need a system that is not connected to pulling every penny from our pockets at every turn without giving anything in return. SERVICE cuts..after cuts...and We are supposed to be grateful that they don't cut more? 😑? |
