Reply to comment by Economy-Cupcake808 in PATH Train on Twitter - #PATHThursday is an opportunity for passengers to meet with PATH staff and management to share concerns and offer suggestions about ways to enhance the system. by notabot_123

I don't buy this. If PATH was owned by NJ Transit (or preferably an organization specific to Hudson and Essex County), there would actually be a way for the mayors of Jersey City, Newark, etc, as wll as as the taxpayers to seriously petition for change. Pressure to state officials would be much more realized. At the moment because PATH is also co-operated by New York, it has even more more reason to neglect the rails. Having it wholly managed by New Jersey would mean that when constituents want something, there's an actual chance (even if small) of it happening.

At the moment literally nobody but the governor can influence PATH and that's a problem.
