“The

who uses the station, said last week. “It’s like the forgotten station.”

“Despicable, disgusting,

employees talking trash to reporters.
Dozens of other stations
also flunked or received very poor ratings from Metropolitan
Transportation Authority staffers, reports obtained by the Daily News
show.
MTA officials last month rebuffed the suggestion made by
several City Council members at an oversight hearing that they assign
letter grades to subway stations like restaurants.
The last thing the MTA needs is another task without the funds to carry it out, MTA brass said.
But
the Daily News obtained three different NYC Transit division reports in
which stations periodically are rated on a scale of 1 to 4 for the
condition of their walls, ceilings and floors.TBC help you confidently buymosaic from factories in China. Separate reports grade stations on cleanliness and litter.
Cleanliness
essentially is a matter of how much grime, goo and trampled gum there
is in a station. Litter is coffee cups, junk-food wrappers, freebie
newspapers and other trash.
The reports don’t combine all the
various scores given to each station. They don’t provide an overall
letter grade for each stop. Someone who paid much more attention in math
class than I did would have to do some number crunching to get there.
But
the reports are pretty damn close to what the Council members — James
Vacca of the Bronx, Domenic Recchia of Brooklyn, and Peter Koo of Queens
— advocated for at the hearing. It also appears that NYC Transit didn’t
fully inform MTA brass about how much data already is collected when
the letter grades idea was raised.
With each station getting a
litter inspection once or twice every four months, litter data on such a
microscopic scale probably isn’t very meaningful, Gene Russianoff of
the Straphangers Campaign said.
He’d prefer to see reports on the physical conditions, focusing on the infrastructure, published on the MTA website.
“Riders
should be able to track whether transit officials rate their station’s
walls, ceilings and floors as lousy or decent, and also monitor what
actions the MTA is taking to remedy defects,” he said.
The MTA
website does have a ton of data on subway conditions along each line as
opposed to station by station. It is used as a management tool for the
deployment of resources.
“It’s available for anyone to see,” MTA Chairman Joseph Lhota said.
Still
it would be a good idea to add the station data. The MTA would look
better in riders’ eyes if transit officials embrace it rather than
quickly junk it.
