The climate and COVID crises prove that our city and state have moved too slowly and timidly toward fair, safe and sustainable public space and transit infrastructure. Mayor de Blasio and Gov. Cuomo must prioritize transit on our streets to permit safe travel during COVID-19 and future pandemics while advancing a just recovery.
