Actually I am a civic leader and my councilman and I are close friends. As you know, the City Council has no jurisdiction over the MTA. It is a state agency. Unfortunately my Assemblyman & Senator are not as proactive to address these issues. Why not have city businesses adopt stations? Look at how nicely Reuters takes care of the restrooms at Times Square. By addressing the issues I raised, you will increase ridership. People do not want to see rats, graffiti, peeling paint, filth, etc. They want cleanliness, reliability and safety. When that is given they ride the trains in greater numbers. Today people only ride the trains if they have no other choice. We want to attract those people and others to use mass transit as the best option. Remember in 1983 when they introduced the R-62 on the #4? WHat happened? Ridership went through the roof. |
