Councilman Leads Fight for PATH Service Improvements, Overlooks WTC Service Changes

Downtown Councilman Steven Fulop is looking to lead a crusade against the Port Authority, railing against already poor weekend and late night PATH Service and demanding an expansion of the Pavonia/Newport Station. Hoboken councilwoman Beth Mason is joining the fight. The pair is involved with FixMyPATH.com, a site that encourages residents to contact the governors of New York and New Jersey, as well as the Port Authority.

The site allows users to generate, automatically, emails to the governors and the appropriate members of the Port Authority. Unfortunately, the site over emphasizes the importance of expanding the Pavonia/Newport Station while failing to address last week's proposed suspensions of weekend service to the World Trade Center.

PATH riders concerned about proposals to sacrifice weekend World Trade Center PATH service in order to allow a faster construction schedule in Manhattan should consider contact the governor of New Jersey directly by phone: 609.292.6000. Corzine will be seeking re-election next year.
