Lennyj17 Posted February 10, 2010 Author Share #26 Posted February 10, 2010 MTA Bus routes also are 100% reimbursed by NYC, that is another reason why they need to remain separate No not really - The city originally wanted the lines merged into NYCT.....I'm telling you it was the Unions that wasn't having it, because of the loss of seniority on both sides...Private Lines and NYCT unions... The Unions are the sole reason MTAB even exists today....otherwise everything would be NYCT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kriston Lewis Posted February 10, 2010 Share #27 Posted February 10, 2010 It also has to do with the unions or something. Supposedly, the new union head is strongly opposed to merging the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Concourse Posted February 10, 2010 Share #28 Posted February 10, 2010 That's a shame. Things could be so much more efficient if they could merge everything and rearrange/cut some lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
traildriver Posted February 12, 2010 Share #29 Posted February 12, 2010 Didn't the MTA finally resolve this similar issue with the merging of NYCTA and MABSTOA a while back? Couldn't they do same now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
traildriver Posted February 12, 2010 Share #30 Posted February 12, 2010 I like the unified timetables on the web. Now if MTA Bus would only post those timetables at the bus stops like NYC Bus does, that would be a wonderful thing.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Concourse Posted February 12, 2010 Share #31 Posted February 12, 2010 Now that, I totally agree with. There's still nothing about the B100 on those stops along Fillmore Av. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
