FYI

Funds for capital projects will be safe for the foreseeable future as the Metropolitan Transportation Authority’s monthly board meeting revealed that deficits should be covered by the federal government and lockbox money for expansion and improvement will not be needed to support the agency’s operations.

MTA Chairman Pat Foye said he and other MTA officials are committed to reopening 24 hour service on subways which was suspended in early May to empty out all stations and trains for deep cleaning. The closure period was reduced from 1 a.m. to 5 a.m. to 2 a.m. to 4 a.m. at the end of February, something described by Governor Andrew Cuomo as a “phased reopening” but left no mention of when the 24-hour service would be fully restored.

Even with covid over, NYC ridership will never return to pre-pandemic normalcy for a very long time. The collateral damage globally will reduce tourism here for atleast a 3-4 years.

3-4 years? What evidence are you basing this on? Or are you just pulling arbitrary numbers?
