Re: Why the vaccine won't do much for transit ridership

My financial advisor, who normally works in Manhattan with an apartment in an expensive area of Brooklyn, has sublet his apartment and has his family in a rental house in Cutchogue.

He expects to have that arrangement indefinitely. His clients are none the wiser and is totally seamless. Should he have to return to the office, he'll simply move back to Brooklyn. Even then, it may be Monday/Wednesday, Tuesday/Thursday, and alternate Fridays for every group under a manager.

If MTA carries out any of their stupid ideas like not raising railroad monthly passes while raising already expensive one way tickets 10% with partial WFH going on, and merging Fare Zones 4 to 14 into one, expect to see massive rider diversions to automobiles. As it is, highway traffic is approaching normalcy while train ridership is down 70%.

Nobody can predict what this will all look like in 1 or 2 years.
