I’ve been saying this for years. The one thing that Bloomberg could do tomorrow that would not only help alleviate traffic problems, but also send a clear signal to the oil companies and the rest of America that NYC is serious about the environment, is institute rapid transit bus routes.
The so-called ‘greatest city in the world’ doesn’t even have decently-paved streets, let alone cutting edge transportation features like bus rapid transit, neighborhood traffic calming plans or bicycle-friendly avenues. It may be time to consider planning and transportation policy as Board of Education-type problems, where a top-to-bottom overhaul of city agencies is needed.
