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

    Agreed we gotta let New Yorkers know about this because it will inspire the rest of the country when they make theirs as well and eventually when the country is regained by people and overhauled we will all be the ones riding them so… We might as well get him to hear and take that into account all we are saying as suggestions and things to avoid to make it way better. Glad he is looking at Tokyo though that’s the one good one

    Anyone know how we can contact them?

    Edit: I’m about trams, trains, and HSR but makes more sense for bikes in NYC
