- This blog is published to enlist support and ideas for improved transit and better traffic conditions in New York City. Traffic and transit reform should have the following goals: • Increase service, with vast reductions in crowding and travel times on public transportation • Change the culture of the MTA to put riders first • Reduce vehicular traffic and particulate pollution in all 5 boroughs and the entire downstate region • Establish strict enforcement of all existing traffic laws • Produce local and national campaigns to increase driver responsibility • Dedicated funding (a lockbox) for mass transit • Expand access to public transportation for city neighborhoods not served • Provide incentives to promote alternate transportation, from hybrids to bicycles. A plan that shoots for these goals is a winner, and would improve the economy and quality of life for all New Yorkers. It can happen, but only if we demand it. I invite and welcome your comments. Please email me if you'd like to post on this blog.
