Chair Ferrer opened the meeting. II. Public Speakers Murray Bodin commended NYCT on its ability to embrace change and suggested that MTA ”apps” be based on official schedules, not on paper schedules, so that they can provide the most up to date information to riders. Enrique Colon of the South Bronx Community Congress read a statement requesting that elevator service be restored to the 149th Street Grand Concourse subway station, asking that the MTA prioritize the installation of an elevator at that location in its next Capital Plan. III. Minutes and Work Plan Upon motion duly made and seconded, the Committee approved the Minutes of the September 22, 2014 meeting of the MTA New York City Transit Authority, Manhattan and Bronx Surface Transit Operating Authority, Staten Island Rapid Transit Operating Authority, Capital Construction Company and Bus Company. There were no changes to the Work Plan. IV. Agenda Items A. Operations Report President Bianco commented that October 27, 2014 marked the 110th anniversary of New York City subway service, also noting that on September 23rd of this year, subway ridership exceeded 6.1 million, the highest weekday ridership since formal recordkeeping began. President Bianco attributed the increased ridership to capital plan investments promoting the maintenance of a state of good repair and the ongoing improvement and expansion of the system. He also advised the Committee that the Fulton Transit Center would officially open to the public on Monday, November 10th at 5:00 am. With regard to recent concerns regarding communicable diseases, President Bianco reassured the Committee that a comprehensive policy for handling potentially infectious waste and sick passengers is in place. SVP Leader reported to the Committee on the Department of Subways’ operating performance. President Irick reported to the Committee on bus operating performance for both NYCT and MTA Bus. In response to a question from Member Moerdler regarding resources needed to sustain good service, President Bianco advised the Committee that the Capital Program was developed to address and maintain the growth of the system, and that on the operating side, running times are being adjusted to better reflect existing realities with positive results. With regard to Member Moerdler’s request for information regarding the potential for installing an elevator ________________________________________________________________________________ Master Page # 5 of 233 - Transit & Bus Committee Meeting 11/17/2014 at 149th Street, Grand Concourse, President Bianco advised that the project is being actively considered. Member Greenberg questioned whether existing resources were sufficient to accommodate increased system capacity, including necessary changes to existing signal systems. Member Cappelli agreed, noting the need for additional City, State and Federal funding. In response to questions from Member Albert, SVP Leader attributed delays on the and lines to weekend construction work, and Chief Cafiero noted that delays are measured in relation to the schedule that NYCT is trying to run, and not on changes in service destination. Member Ballan expressed interest in getting information on not only the applicability of SEQRA to the lane changes on 106th Street, but also on NYC DOT’s compliance with SEQRA in creating a bicycle lane at that location. In response to Member Albert’s comment on the effect of the lane change on running times, President Irick noted that the impetus for changing the bus route from 106th to 116th street was primarily safety related and was not based on running time considerations. VP Kennedy presented the Safety Report. In response to Member Moerdler’s question regarding the existence of statistics on the location of trash/debris accumulation, VP Kennedy said that although such statistics are kept, there have been few trends detected. Deputy Chief Coogan presented the NYPD Transit Bureau statistics. In response to a question from Member Cappelli, Deputy Chief Coogan informed the Committee that parole officers for repeat transit offenders are notified when system crimes occur to ensure that parolees are adhering to their parole stipulations. In response to a concern expressed by Member Moerdler, Deputy Chief Coogan informed the Committee that District Attorneys’ offices are advised whenever a felony arrest is made, and that high bail is typically requested. In response to a question from Member Albert regarding recidivism, Deputy Chief Coogan noted that lists of parole stipulations are maintained, adding that parole officers are contacted if the Transit Bureau becomes aware that a transit offender is violating the terms of his or her parole. In response to a question from Member Kay, EVP Bergen opined that the MTA Police, and not the NYPD Transit Bureau, was responsible for policing the Staten Island Rapid Transit Operating Authority (“SIRTOA”) as a result of SIRTOA having once been a railroad, and not part of mass transit. President Bianco agreed to get back to Member Kay with a definitive response. ________________________________________________________________________________ Master Page # 6 of 233 - Transit & Bus Committee Meeting 11/17/2014 B. Financial Reports President Bianco reported to the Committee on NYCT’s finances. In response to a question from Member Kay regarding the reason for the decline in paratransit ridership, Tom Charles, VP Paratransit, noted that intermodal trip planning (feeder service) has reduced demand from customers with conditional eligibility. In response to a question from Member Cappelli, VP Charles informed the Committee that a taxi voucher ride is considered an ADA trip. President Irick reported to the Committee on MTA Bus’ finances. In response to a question from Member Moerdler regarding the effect of the increase in Staten Island

    Maneuvering Mobility: Measuring Multimodality in New York City’s Selected Transit Hubs 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 Faisha Namira Indrakesuma May 2018 Advisor: Dr. Weiping Wu, Director of MS Urban Planning Program, GSAPP Reader: Jonas Hagen, PhD Candidate Urban Planning Program, GSAPP Abstract The main purpose of this research is to answer the question of how New York City encourages multimodality through institutional and fare integration and how different transportation hubs within the city service multimodality through physical design. This research is primarily a qualitative study that heavily relies on direct field observations as well as reviews of the relevant literature. The analysis of this thesis is broken down into three main categories of multimodality integration: institutional, fare, and physical. The analysis of physical integration is focused on three transportation hubs: namely the Atlantic Terminal, the Wall Street Ferry Station, and the Harlem 125th Street Station. This thesis finds that New York City is a unique context in the organizations that are active in daily operations of public transportation. This institutional division of operations would consequently lead to low integration. While the presence of different transportation modes are continually present in proximity to each other, the ease of transfer most of the time is coincidental based on density and frequency of service and has little to do with intentional integration. ii Acknowledgements I would like to thank the wonderful faculty and students of the Columbia University Urban Planning Program who have nurtured and fed my passion for urban planning.

  • Chapter 13: Transit and Pedestrians A. INTRODUCTION
    Chapter 13: Transit and Pedestrians A. INTRODUCTION This chapter describes the transit and pedestrian travel characteristics and potential impacts associated with the proposed Atlantic Yards Arena and Redevelopment project located on an approximately 22-acre site in the Atlantic Terminal area of Brooklyn, roughly bounded by Flatbush and 4th Avenues on the west, Vanderbilt Avenue on the east, Atlantic Avenue on the north, and Dean and Pacific Streets on the south (see Figure 12-5 in Chapter 12, “Traffic and Parking”). As described in detail in earlier chapters of this environmental impact statement (EIS), in addition to an approximately 850,000 gross-square-foot (gsf) arena for use by the Nets professional basketball team and for other sporting, entertainment, and cultural events, it is anticipated that the proposed project would include residential, office, hotel, and retail uses, eight acres of publicly accessible open space, approximately 3,670 parking spaces, and an improved Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) rail yard. (As discussed in Chapter 1, the development program for the proposed project has been reduced from the program that was analyzed in the DEIS.) Also included would be internal circulation improvements at the Atlantic Avenue/Pacific Street subway station complex, and a major new on-site entrance to the complex adjacent to the arena. In addition to the arena, a total of 16 other buildings would be constructed on the eight blocks comprising the project site. These buildings are referred to as Site 5 and Buildings 1 through 15. The proposed project is expected to benefit from its location in an area with one of the densest concentrations of transit services in the City.
