  • 1 Policy Options Brief To: Councilman Ydanis A
    Policy Options Brief To: Councilman Ydanis A. Rodriguez, Chairperson of the New York City Council Committee on Transportation; Daryl C. Irick, Acting President of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority From: Kyle Rectenwald and Paul Evans Subject: Detrimental Effects of Limited Transport Access on Low-Income New Yorkers Date: March 23, 2017 Problem: The New Yorkers Who Need Access to Transit the Most Have it the Least New York City’s low-income communities are being severely underserved by the city’s public transportation system. Around 58% of the city’s poorest residents, more than any other income group, rely on the subway and bus systems for transportation (Bendix). Yet for a variety of reasons to be outlined, these residents are being increasingly isolated from access to transit and presented with limited mobility options. Marginalization from the city’s transport network means limited access to the opportunities provided by a vibrant city like New York. This inequitable situation has real, detrimental effects on people’s lives. For one young man, simply getting from his home in West Harlem to attend college in the Bronx requires an hour or more walk every day (Stolper and Rankin 4). For many residents, lack of transport means they are unable to even pick children up from childcare, go grocery shopping, or access basic, fundamental services like hospitals and schools. For the city’s low-income population, limited access to transport is a key factor locking them into a spiral of poverty. As Councilmember David Greenfield recently said, “You can’t get out of poverty if you can’t get to your job” (Foley).

  • October 5, 2016 Veronique Hakim President, New York City Transit
    UNITED STATES HOUSE THE NEW YORK THE NEW YORK THE COUNCIL OF THE OF REPRESENTATIVES STATE SENATE STATE ASSEMBLY CITY OF NEW YORK October 5, 2016 Veronique Hakim President, New York City Transit Metropolitan Transportation Authority 2 Broadway New York, NY 1004 Dear President Hakim, Please restore the M15 Select Bus Service at 72nd Street. The M15 Limited stopped at 72nd Street until it was phased out in favor of M15 Select Bus Service. With high bus-dependent populations, infrequent local service, crosstown bus service, hospitals, community support and opening of the Second Avenue Subway with a station at 72nd Street, now is the perfect opportunity to increase ridership by restoring M15 Select Bus Service at 72nd Street. 72nd Street Only Location Omitted from Select Bus Service When Select Bus Service was introduced to First and Second Avenues on the M15 route, Select Bus Stations replaced Limited Service stops in every location above Houston Street other than East 72nd Street. Since October 2010, residents living in the East 72nd Street area, for example at 73rd off York Avenue, now must choose between walking three avenues and six blocks, more than half a mile, to a Select Bus Service bus station at 67th or 79th Streets and Second Avenue, versus half that distance to 72nd Street. Walking more than half a mile in both directions is simply too far for many residents. High Concentration of Seniors and Children Need Select Bus Service at 72nd Street The neighborhood that would be served by a Select Bus Service station at 72nd Street includes Census Tracts in Manhattan number 124, 126, 132, and 134 spanning from 69th to 79th between 3rd Avenue and the East River with a population of 44,756, one of the highest near any Select Bus station: 8,679 or 32.7% of households include children (under 18) or seniors (65 and over) who may rely on bus service due to age: o 3,326 or 12.5% of households have children under 18 years-old.

  • Improving Bus Service in New York a Thesis Presented to The
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Columbia University Academic Commons Improving Bus Service in New York A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of Architecture and Planning COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY In Partial Fulfillment Of the requirements for the Degree Master of Science in Urban Planning By Charles Romanow May 2018 Abstract New York City’s transportation system is in a state of disarray. City street are clogged with taxi’s and for-hire vehicles, subway platforms are packed with straphangers waiting for delayed trains and buses barely travel faster than pedestrians. The bureaucracy of City and State government in the region causes piecemeal improvements which do not keep up with the state of disrepair. Bus service is particularly poor, moving at rates incomparable with the rest of the country. New York has recently made successful efforts at improving bus speeds, but only so much can be done amidst a city of gridlock. Bus systems around the world faced similar challenges and successfully implemented improvements. A toolbox of near-immediate and long- term options are at New York’s disposal dealing directly with bus service as well indirect causes of poor bus service. The failing subway system has prompted public discussion concerning bus service. A significant cause of poor service in New York is congestion. A number of measures are capable of improving congestion and consequently, bus service. Due to the city’s limited capacity at implementing short-term solutions, the most highly problematic routes should receive priority. Routes with slow speeds, high rates of bunching and high ridership are concentrated in Manhattan and Downtown Brooklyn which also cater to the most subway riders.

  • The Path to Partnership: How Cities and Transit Systems Can Stop
    The Path to Partnership: How Cities and Transit Systems Can Stop Worrying and Join Forces Introduction In order to keep and attract riders, transit must be frequent, fast, and reliable. Maintaining frequent, fast, and reliable service in the congested conditions of most American cities requires prioritizing street level transit above automobile traffic, through measures like bus lanes, queue jumps, and signal priority. Relative to large capital projects, bus priority measures provide immediate improvements in travel time and reliability at a small fraction of the cost, and can be accomplished overnight with the right combination of paint, light duty street installations, and enforcement. The projects profiled in this study, including a bus lane in Everett, MA, New York City’s Select Bus Service, and Seattle’s Rapid Ride have seen travel time savings of 10-30%. While on-street transit improvements can be done quickly and cheaply, they aren’t necessarily easy to accomplish. Getting them done usually requires two things: · Political will and leadership from mayors, transit system managers and board members, and other leaders who must be willing to defend potentially controversial street and service changes like removing on-street parking spaces for a bus lane, or eliminating bus stops that are too close together. · Structuring transit agencies and city street agencies to more quickly and effectively deliver on-street transit projects. This may mean forging new relationships and decision-making processes, gathering new data, hiring for different skills, and figuring out new ways to prioritize projects. 2 Transit street projects can be tough to get done when there’s no history of doing them.
