from NYC NOW · host WNYC

Starting Monday, NJ Transit is offering 50% off roundtrip fares from five northern New Jersey stations to relieve traffic caused by a sinkhole that closed I-80. Meanwhile, a coalition of advocacy groups has released a detailed plan for how New York City’s next mayor can end homelessness, focusing on targeted housing and mental health investments. Plus, the eastbound Grand Central Parkway ramp to the Long Island Expressway will close overnight through April for a $15 million construction project. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
