In case you are wondering why there have been few stories about the MTA board meeting yesterday its because there was no news to report. Just record on-time performance by Metro-North.
A “washout” said one reporter on the transit beat. Another said the meeting highlight was the gadflies who appear for the public comment section.
And MTA Chairman Peter Kalikow — as his new custom — was whisked by security into the elevator without bothering to entertain a single question. He did, I’m told, wave to frustrated transit reporters.
