Come meet new people by train or bikes in NYC

NYC, especially Manhattan, has so many loners.

The governor is focusing on trains with the MTA and the mayor on bikes.

Today, the MTA approved the $65 billion for the construction plans within five years around NYC. The budget is part of the state already given the go ahead by the governor for infrastructure to payroll mobility tax which is around $1.4 billion. $3 billion is coming from the NYC taxpayer coffer. The other 20% is from the Trump admin the MTA is expecting despite the congestion pricing lawsuits.

Hey, it's taxpayer money so who is who.

Some of the funding will go to buying 1.500 train cars, renovations at selected stations and the best one is to add new turnstiles to prevent fare beaters (yeah right).

Now bikes around the city. The Mayor's Office announced 500 new locations in the five boroughs including Queens to add bike stations to expand for the people. The people don't know it's actually for the delivery companies phasing out little by little so no one complains. Also the same locations will have bike storage boxes around the city so no need to carry around home your own bike. Just say hello to someone and bike around until you decide to stop for a coffee at a house. The city is working on a company to set the technology similar to car rentals.

Imagine this way no need to run or hail a cab.

Grab a bike and peddle people peddle.
