Mamdani's DOT commissioner wants NYC to be more like Paris, Bogotá, Tokyo

New York City's transportation system is far from the greatest in the world. Mayor Zohran Mamdani has tasked his transportation chief with turning things around.

Mayor Eric Adams (and others) used to frequently declare that New York has the best transportation system in the world.

New Transportation Commissioner Mike Flynn acknowledges that isn’t true, but thinks he has political support to improve the city’s streets
