Title: A review of MTA New York City Transit "state of good repair" capital expenditures
Description: New York City Comptroller William C. Thompson, Jr. issued a report that faults the Metropolitan Transportation Authority for jeopardizing the safety and security of riders by consistently delaying critical infrastructure work in New York City. A Review of MTA New York City Transit "State of Good Repair" Capital Expenditures found that since 1982, when the first MTA Five-Year Capital Plan was issued, large disparities have emerged between the commuter railroads and New York City Transit (NYC Transit) in achieving what the MTA itself considers a "State of Good Repair." The new report emphasizes that the MTA must increase capital spending on NYC Transit projects and accelerate its work.
