Reply to comment by NeverTrustATurtle in MTA Doubles Down on Construction Costs by michaelmvm

I knew someone that worked off Broadway. He said whenever a light blew they changed all the lights. Union rules were such that you had to pay for a large minimum block of time, so they might as well do it all at once. They donated the used bulbs at least.

They certainly do! The Port Authority also subs out bagge carrisouel cleaning/maintenence and DOT does it for HOV lane conversions! It's turtles and accountants all they way down!
