Buses, Trains & Fewer Automobiles: Transportation Goals on the South Fork

from 27Speaks · host The Express News Group

Public transit has always underserved local commuters on the East End, contributing to the much-loathed traffic on Montauk Highway and County Road 39 and making it difficult for businesses to retain workers. Innovative solutions to the region's transportation woes are on the table, and some are being tested right now. In this week's edition of 27speaks, the editors discuss the Long Island Rail Road's South Fork Commuter Connection and Suffolk County Transit's pilot program to replace fixed bus routes with on-demand buses that can be called via an app.
