MTA Ignores State Mandate

In “MTA Ignores State Mandate to Compare Sky-High Costs with Expenses of Transit Systems in Other Countries,” the programming of the Transportation and Land-Use Team of Research Scholars Eric Goldwyn and Elif Ensari and Fellow Alon Levy is mentioned.
The preliminary results of a study launched last year by New York University’s Marron Institute found the MTA spends significantly more per mile of new subway track than any other transit agency on the planet.
