MTA Capital Construcon 7 Capacity Building

• Investments in the system began a rebirth of NY that began in the 1990’s. The MTA must continue to invest in its system in order to achieve 2030 levels of forecasted population and employment growth. § NYC Forecasted Population: 9.4+ M by 2030 § Regional Forecasted Population: 26+ M by 2030

MTA Capital Construcon 8 Regional Economic Investment • The New York region, whose economy is second only to Tokyo’s, could not exist without the MTA

• Rebuilding the MTA was critical to establishing New York’s competitive position, but now capacity limitations choke new economic growth – Long Island Rail Road cannot meet the needs of Long Island, which has a population equivalent to the nation’s third largest city (Chicago), to reach jobs in Manhattan

• East Side Access provides new links to our economic center, keeping jobs in the US and New York’s competitive standing in the global economy

MTA Capital Construcon 9 To support this economy, the MTA… • Provides 8.5 million transit rides a day • Manages a 2013 annual operating budget of $13.2 billion • 2010-2014 Capital Program is $35 billion – $24 billion core – $10.7 billion for • Creates Jobs – The 2010-2014 Capital Program generates 350,000 jobs in NY State and nearly 300,000 jobs nationally* – $44 billion impact on NY State*
