MTA Restores Some Planned Service Cuts

NY1

"Kathy", a commenter for this story questions the MTA's dealings with developer Bruce Ratner.

I'm surprised that the sweetheart deal Ratner made with the MTA over the Atlantic Yards has never come up. He is getting something like 50 million dollars in breaks, so that was 50 million that could have been in the MTA's pockets from another developer, which would have gone a long way to prevent these cuts. Sounds like the MTA needs new management, and let the people who are doing the real work keep their jobs and keep the buses and trains running.
