$200 million will fix the Subway?

Glad I'm out of that city.

NYC survives on the subway. They need to fix it and the state needs to support that. Why the hell is this even an issue for NY? It's a net positive for both parties to fix it.

Not just the subway. The arteries that bring people in and out of the city every day. NJT, LIRR, bridges etc. People rely on that shit to earn their bread and butter.

"Oooh, look at the pretty lights!" Said no NY'er ever!!

Seriously these two schmucks need to stop with the pissing match and sit down and figure out how to fix the damn subways... even on the weekends its a pain in the ass to get anywhere.

I think I read something yesterday where the MTA was considering banning food on the subway to curb track fires... ummm, no. How about you put trash bins back into most of the subway terminals so that people have somewhere to throw their garbage instead of on the tracks...

I was out in LA in June and used their subway for the first time and was amazed at how clean everything was, especially the tracks. Not a single ounce of garbage could be seen anywhere. It's embarrassing when you see that and then see how the NYC subway system looks.

FIX THE SUBWAYS

Am I crazy or did he not call a state of emergency to fix all trains immediately not too long ago?

Yes, he did.

How bad is the subway? I walk everywhere and only use it once a week with no problem.

There are delays, broken signals, derailments, crappy old trains.

This happened the other day:

The other day when the A, B, C, D trains were all running with delays because of a track fire, this is what the 168th Street 1 train station looked like...

That cheap, SF Bay Area just approved $3.5 billion to fix and update the shitty BART system

200 mil will not fix the subway.

Gonna need to see that bridge light show before I decide if it was worth it.

Actual render of the proposed $200m bridge lights:

Good represention of how taxi drivers treat other drivers on the road.

every time I ride the subways on the newer days with the LED screens inside I always think, "couldn't you have spent the money elsewhere instead of these useless screens???"

I just took the subway last weekend for the first time in a year. Took it to get to the Museum of Natural History with my wife and son.

Holy cow! Huge delays, extremely crowded and hot conditions. What a nightmare. As bad as it is to drive in the city, I think I'll do that next time.

And I Christie was bad, they're both unbelievably incompetent.

While Cuomo keeps jerking off at his upcoming light show, a Q train derailed this morning.

Someone explain to me why led lighting is so expensive? Not only here, but in all senses.

They are dirt cheap to produce.
