The L train shutdown will impact hundreds of thousands of riders who take the train between Manhattan and Brooklyn every day. Starting in January 2019, The L train tunnel, known as the Canarsie Tube will be shut down to repair damages caused by Hurricane Sandy.
During this time, 225,000 passengers will need an alternative way to get to and from Manhattan-Brooklyn.
You have been put in charge of organizing the interim transportation. You will need to make decisions that positively impacts the environment and the community.
[[Closing the Tunnel]]
<img src=http://i.imgur.com/flC24ao.gif>The L train is one of the most congested subway lines in the city. There are two major plans offered on how to repair the tunnel.
Which do you choose? Plan A first involves closing one track at a time while Plan B is to close service completely.
[[Plan A]] will take around 3 years to make repairs.
[[Plan B]] B will take 18 months.
<img src=http://i.imgur.com/cPzRLXG.gif>The cost of repairing the tunnel is estimated at 800 million dollars. The federal government is expected to pay a large portion of it.

People are getting super hype about bicycles since the lanes were expanded! Knock it up to an increasing proliferation of bipedal vehicles, trends towards environmentally friendly modes of transport, and whatever the reason people seem to really like their bikes! This trend towards environmentally friendly modes of transport is great, but it also has led to a lot more bikes on the subways (and thus less space for riders).
Should we impose a [[ban]] on bringing bikes on the trains like we did with [[hoverboards]] or continue the [[expansion]] of bicycle lanes?
