L Train rated the cleanest

> Years ago, the MTA had announced that the L line was going to be the first to receive new technological advancement and modernization. As a result, the entire L train was operated almost solely by computers. Passengers were very delighted after receiving the news but they were later disappointed because of detours and delays. Two years ago, if one had asked commuters to rate the L train, they would have probably said it was starkly nerve wrecking, because of the huge time lapses between trains. The train travels from Rockaway Parkway(Canarsie) to Eighth Avenue, and West 14 street (Manhattan).
However, today, there has been a positive transformation. There is a substantial growth in ridership and a great improvement in frequency of service. Reggie Bent, a prominent businessman of Canarsie who travels to Manhattan daily said, ” I can’t believe that the train has improved so much.” The L train has been rated as the cleanest subway in the latest survey in the straphangers campaign. Although the L train has changed, it still has it flaws like most other trains, with overcrowding in rush hours.

  1. This story is an absolute goldmine. There are so many different pieces you could do on the MTA and public transit. The L train is probably one of the better ones because the improvements in technology should let the MTA run more trains on existing track at closer intervals. Imagine if the whole transit system had 20% more trains? It would be so much less crowded.
