Yeah, that’s the working title for a documentary I’m working on.
So far here’s the plan I have as I’ve begun some very preliminary research:
- Interview subway commuters at various subway stations and find out how they feel about night and weekend service. Be sure to ask:
- Where they commute to/from?
- How often they go into the city during these times?
- Would they be willing to pay higher rates for better service?
- Once I have a good sample of opinions and a sense of common public sentiment, I’d like to start contacting the appropriate authorities on the MTA board about who makes these decisions. I also want to know if these people commute on the subway at all.
That’s it for now. More as it comes.
