RIDERS ALLIANCE: GOVERNOR CUOMO’S MTA BRONX BUS REDESIGN INADEQUATE

New York News\Bronx]
Riders Alliance Campaign Manager Stephanie Burgos-Veras: “Governor Cuomo needs to raise the stakes, think bigger, and act bolder. There’s a lot more than a new bus map riding on the Bronx redesign. Bigger network changes in Queens and Brooklyn are soon to come. And with congestion pricing on the horizon, riders need the governor’s strong leadership to make major improvements to Bronx buses now.”
