Her picture shows her parked on Riverside drive. So either she is lying about where she was parked or the cop wrote the wrong address and doesn’t know what a hydrant looks like.

I think people are appreciative of transport improvements but cost is the issue. Why must we spend BILLIONS for 3.5 stations. I agree that SAS made a lot of journeys faster and better, there were also some operational improvements. While GCM has fewer improvements, the number of additional trains is minimal and some journeys will take longer.
We should spending more efficiently. There should be better value for money.

Was this not realized when they planned this? They spent billions for micro improvements schedule wise. Why even go through with it. Yes the tunnel was provisioned under 63 but other than that it was never sensible. I think with this, second ave subway, London Elizabeth line, infrastructure planners should realize that extremely deep level stations are not an improvement if the time saving are lost getting in and out of the station.
Although it seems like public transport and infrastructure will never go back in the hand of competent people as politicians hold all the control and funding.

At this point it would be sensible to have a training course for private security on what is & isn’t allowed so things like this don’t happen again, hopefully.

Well is it even possible to use the tracks to the Bronx as a light railway. It’s so sad to se every transportation project in NY is mediocre.
