This thesis attempts find out which characteristics of airport rail links most strongly influence mode share so that future rail link plans can be assessed. These findings are then applied to the current plans for an airport rail link in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The thesis begins by examining current airport rail links in the U.S. Detailed case studies are performed for the following airports: John F. Kennedy, Philadelphia, Boston Logan, Washington National, Chicago O'Hare, Chicago Midway, and San Jose.

  • • the Activation of OMNY Readers at the Queensboro Plaza Station in Queens Marks the Completion of the Line and the Halfway Po
    The activation of OMNY readers at the Queensboro Plaza station in Queens marks the completion of the line and the halfway point in the MTA's effort to activate OMNY at all 472 subway stations in the system. OMNY installation remains set to be completed by the end of the year at all subway stations and on all MTA-operated buses. A list of all subway stations and bus routes where OMNY is currently in use is at this link: https://omny.info/system-rollout In March, the MTA announced OMNY had surpassed 10 million taps. In 2021, the MTA will introduce an OMNY card at retail locations throughout the New York region. Also in 2021, the MTA will begin to install new vending machines at locations throughout the system. OMNY readers accept contactless cards from companies such as Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover, as well as digital wallets such as Apple Pay, Google Pay, Samsung Pay, and Fitbit Pay. Following the completion of OMNY installation at all subway turnstiles and on buses, the MTA will introduce all remaining fare options, including unlimited ride passes, reduced fares, student fares, and more. Only after OMNY is fully available everywhere MetroCard is today, expected in 2023, will the MTA say goodbye to the MetroCard. The MetroCard was first tested in the system in 1993, debuting to the larger public in January 1994. All turnstiles were MetroCard-enabled by May 1997 and all buses began accepting it by the end of 1995. Tokens were sold until April 2003 and acceptance was discontinued that May in subway stations and that December on buses.

It’s an in-between number so we weren’t going to go all out with celebrations. Then we realized that there was no guarantee 45 years ago that we’d still be here—let alone have developed our range of programs and skills. So we decided that a little horn tooting was in order. Our founders had a vision: an organization that would focus on preservation and have technical skills that could actually help people fix their buildings.
