Flynn on record bus investment with $17M and 70 new positions
Flynn details the bus action plan investment of nearly $17M and 70 positions in FY27 growing to $35M and 104 positions by FY30, plus over $300M for future capital projects.
Starting with fast buses, building on the mayor's commitment to deliver faster, more reliable bus service, and the down payment made in the preliminary budget, we're thrilled by the level of investment this executive budget makes in creating streets that are safer and better for all.
This budget provides record levels of funding and resources for bus projects, demonstrating a clear commitment from the mayor to expand faster, safer, and more efficient mobility across the city.
It adds nearly $17 million in 70 new positions in FY27, growing to $35 million in 104 positions by FY30, and an allocation of more than $300 million for future capital projects.
For too long, critical infrastructure projects have lacked urgency, and we're thrilled by the mayor's financial and political investment to strengthen our transportation network.
This investment is a commitment to improving New Yorkers'quality of life with reliable and efficient services that work.
