It should have been done 20 years earlier. Pwople fought for it longer. It was one of the best things the MTA ever did and you want to reverse it. A type of zone fare would be fairer than eliminating free transfers because that is at least based on some sort of logic. If you a have a subway near you or not is not based on logic but accident. If all subways ran a certain distance from the center and beyond that distance a bus was required, then it would make sense, but such is clearly not the case.If it were reversed, it would have far reaching implications. There used to be a big difference in real estate values if you were in a one fare or two fare zone. That difference greatly narrowed when free transfers were instituted, although there still is some difference if you can walk to a subway or need a bus to access a subway. |
