What happens when the head of the TA and a Brooklyn Assemblyman join Michael Harris, head of the Disabled Riders Coalition, on his morning commute?
They traveled from Michael Harris’ home in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn to Manhattan. Their nearly two-hour-long trip involved a long walk to a bus stop, a bus ride to an accessible subway station, and travel on five subway lines.
The same trip would take any other person about a half-hour. Both Roberts and Harris see today’s trip as the beginning of an new dialogue between disabled riders and the TA.
