One of the metrics I use to judge a city is how easy it easy to get from an airport to center city. European cities pass, many American cities pass - except for NYC. Flying back from SFO after Up Your Alley I found my driver unable to make connection. So, took AirTran to Jamaica LIRR station, Jamaica LIRR to Grand Central and then home. First time I've ever been able to do this. Perfect? No. But better.

Yes, that's LaGuardia Airport in the background! Why is it that @citibike can get bikeriders to #LGA but the @MTA #nyctransit can't get a train built to the busy airport? #bikenyc #bikenewyork #infrastructure #nyc #nystatefail

The MTA just published their August 2023 map, and I just pushed updates for both iOS and Android to the App Store and Google Play. The new map removes labels from various avenues and areas around NYC. It certainly looks cleaner. Not sure yet if I'll miss the labels. #nyc #nycsubway #nycsubwayapp #nycsubwaymap #nyctransit #mta #underway

How Might Congestion Pricing Actually Work in New York? - The tolls will mostly be collected electronically through the E-ZPass system, and drivers should expect penalties for late payments. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/06/28/nyregion/congestion-pricing-nyc.html #congestionpricing #transit #MTA #nyctransit
