Michael Harris and Disabled Riders Coalition declare the "epidemic" of busted subway elevator is over,
While on Wednesday elevator outages remained in the double digits for the fourth straight day, as of 6 a.m . on Thursday the Transit Authority was only reporting three elevator outages.
"Unless something drastic changes during the course of the day, I believe that we can safely say that the epidemic of elevator outages is over. Today is a great day for all New York Straphangers and we praise the Transit Authority for acting expeditiously to resolve this major problem," declared Coalition campaign coordinator Michael A.
