New York lost. Look @ the line ppl had to wait on to catch a bus because 2/3 trains weren’t running

[NoMorePie]

I bet you most of these people could have simply walked

Exactly.

And what pisses me off is when theres a huge lineup for a bus then when the bus picks everyone up, and departs. Theres always that one person that gets off at the very next stop that's maybe a 2 minute walk away

I mean... nobody wanted to call an Uber?

That’s exactly what I was thinking. I would’ve hit That uber or Lyft with the quickness.

They shut down trains at nights or on weekends to fix the tracks while employing shuttle buses to carry folks to their stations.

It’s not a perfect system but adding context to that pic.

MTA has the hardest job. If anything there’s a wider discussion about the state of American infrastructure but the MTA has it rough. MTA has support a metro area of 20M, 24/7, in one of the oldest cities in America. People bytch when they opt to fix a line, they bytch when they raise fares. Trains and buses are the only logical way to have the city running and they can’t be down for extended periods. MTA is probably 20/30 years behind what it should be. If they take down one of these lines to update them, real estate developers, residents and drivers will complain and the media feeds on that.

All the native NYers I know are leaving or planning to leave, it’s yall people coming here from the south and Midwest who keeping coming here. City hasn’t been the same for a while but it’s hard to get the kind of money and freedom you have here in other places.

This is what happens when infrastructure isn't updated. Cuomo is to blame, but honestly, every administration has dragged their feet to fix things. It's the same over in NJ. A train on my line into NYC is canceled every single morning. Fall is right around the corner. So there will be more delays because of wet leaves on the tracks. And not only that, NJTranist operates on the Northeast Corridor, and the federal government doesn't want to pay it's share to update anything. So when the portal bridge is opened, a lot of times that shyt doesn't close correctly. So shyt is delayed for hours, until someone from Amtrak comes with a sledgehammer to knock it back in place. Then there's the Hudson River tunnels that are crumbling. It's only a matter of time when both will have to be closed. If that happens... well I already told my manager if that happens I want to transfer to the NJ office. And my coworkers in Westchester and Long Island aren't too fond of Metro North and the LIRR either. All of this shyt is a mess.

Amtrak probably the greatest example of how far we are behind the rest of the world.

You also had Christie nixing plans for another tunnel for political reasons. shyts a mess.

In reality: No other city has more people willing to sacrifice everything to pay top dollar just to live there

On the Coli: I fukkIng HatE NoO YeRK

 

[EndDomination]

These fools the other day passed a bill to make it illegal to declaw a cat

Nah breh I ain’t joking

New York becomes first state to ban declawing of most cats

Then they act shocked and appalled that people are leaving in droves. Yeah I know it’s mainly cause of the price of rent but it’s a lot of other shyt too

Their priority is giving cats the right to keep their nails so the cats can spill their tea in peace

Goofball shytty ass state. Only thing it’s good for is fukking easy white chicks in the city

That was the state legislature

Looks like NYC legislature cant walk and chew bubblegum... lets focus on infrastructure, not immigrants, parks, and gender pay gaps

This is a fantastic video.

Non nyerz complaining about ny transportation system will always be funny. Those ppl were not waiting that long. 20 mins tops. An army of buses came to pick them up. Yall think the most famous city in the world could affort to have a non functioning metro system and it residents of millions not mae noise about

 

[A1aaa]

It's far from perfect but NYC is generally ranked amongst the top 10 best metro systems in the world.

Light years ahead of whatever bumfukk, irrelevant places MANY of y'all stay in

The only more impressive transit systems I've used extensively are the London Underground and Tokyo Metro...and those don't even have 24 hr coverage.
