>>1729110We can't just "buy" the British guy back, he now works for TfL (Transport for London) and I doubt he'd want to come back to the mess that is NYCT right now. Granted, it is a lot better than 2016 subways but there are a plethora of issues that can't be covered by the infrastructure bill and even then >the MTA, the nation’s largest mass transit agency, stands to get about a 1.9% sliver of that
The money they receive will probably head to the second phase of Second Ave Subway, and a few other capital projects that really only benefit the sitting mayor/governor who approve them by making shiny new stations like the $4 billion dollar Oculus that got Cuomo a lot of press, without a single foot of new track.
The MTA will still continue to suck for the foreseeable future but it should hopefully be better overall than previous years
