Christie’s Transit Chief Slams Proposed PATH Cuts, Says Services Should Be Extended
Gov. Christie’s head of transportation said Monday he is against any cutbacks in PATH service between New Jersey and Manhattan, opposing a report commissioned by his boss and Gov. Cuomo that suggested eliminating overnight service to save the Port Authority millions of dollars each year.
“This is not the way I would save money,” Jamie Fox, who once served as deputy executive director of the Port Authority, told a meeting of the North Jersey Transportation Planning Authority. “Mass transit is the future of this state.” (Thompson/NBC)
Guess he’s riding the PATH gravy train. If its the future of the state, why isn’t the service MAKING millions of dollars every year, not losing them? Unless the future of the state is bankruptcy? Only in graft-speak does losing millions every year make sense, but it creates no value-added for the strap-hangers who ended up paying the bill for all of the losses.
Port of Authority should sell all there interest in the world trade then maybe it would have the funds,this is just a dumb idea.
