As costs rise (in no small part to the greater number of people using the services I'm about to mention), so too must the amount that people who benefit from the services pay in. This is how society works. If you want to see individual taxes lower, increase the taxes that corporate entities pay.

There were reports of the lights and signals not synchronizing correctly at this stop a while ago. Wonder if that's still a problem, if that had anything to do with it or (probably likely), the driver just screwed up as is the case 9/10 times.

For once, I had a pleasant late night ride home from MSG tonight at close to 4AM. No huge crowd at 33rd, got a seat, train didn't even fill up by Christopher like normal - shockingly smooth, despite the HOB layover.

Yea it's a rough intersection. I feel like what they've done (long lights so people can cross easier; a small cutout on the south side where people can sort of stand safely, even though it isn't an official median) is a decent start to improving it, but there's still plenty of ways it could be better for pedestrians and bikers.
