News has it that MTA will have a pilot program going where a manager will be responsible for a single subway line. The idea was to give each lines a greater degree of autonomy, introducing competition within the entire system, and get faster respond to problems that are localize within each lines. 7 and L will be the first to test this new management.

It does sound good on paper, and if they indeed backed up the new managers with money and manpower, who knows, maybe it might actually make things better. And if not, at least I can see one benefit – instead of a faceless voodoo doll with the name MTA on it, we can make dolls with an actual person’s name and face from now on! haha~
