Michael, Move NY would extend City Ticket to seven days a week on Metro North and LIRR and reduce fares to $6 peak/$4 off-peak and Express Buses to $5 to help reduce the congestion (and high prices) of alternatives to the subway system during rush hours and off-peak hours.

Thank you for your comment, Michael Orr. Do you think there are any negative consequences to Move NY Fair Plan’s toll swap strategy?

Given that parts of Queens have often been considered ‘transit deserts’, how would you respond to people’s concerns that introducing a system of toll swap in Queens will cause the toll prices to go up but without adequate extension of public transit services?
