The problem with creating a new subway route on it is that although the ROW exists, the tracks don't: in many sections the line is single-tracked, even though it has room for at least four tracks.Alon Levyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12195377309045184452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6609536178570975752.post-17158147692503976752009-02-03T07:45:00.000-08:002009-02-03T07:45:00.000-08:00Not sure "green versus black" is the best framing ...Not sure "green versus black" is the best framing for the US.BruceMcFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08502035881761277885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6609536178570975752.post-54819917861381103522009-02-03T04:26:00.000-08:002009-02-03T04:26:00.000-08:00I'm praying it'll be someone who will work to fix ...I'm praying it'll be someone who will work to fix MTA's problems and argue for more subways. There are lots of gaping holes in the system in the outer boroughs, as well as the SAS project. I've proposed many subway extensions, and a few of them are doable. In fact, there's a right of way in Brooklyn and Queens that isn't being used to its full potential.
