Formed in 2010 in response to the growing crisis facing the City’s transportation system — inadequate service, escalating fares and tolls, and a dwindling funding base — Move NY is a growing and diverse coalition of stakeholders representing regional business associations, trade unions, clergy, civic leaders, transportation and environmental advocates, and good-governance organizations. Move NY’s mission is to build support for a master transportation plan — developed by traffic guru “Gridlock” Sam Schwartz and the Move NY team — for the New York metropolitan region. As now envisioned, the Move NY Fair Plan will generate the revenues needed to make major investments in maintaining and modernizing our mass transit system and road network, bring toll equity to the region’s commuters and businesses, and reduce the grinding traffic jams that plague the metro region, its people, and the economy that sustains us.
The Move NY Campaign is a project of Blue Marble Project.
