"Why do you continue to bend the knee [to Trump]," state Sen. Brad Hoylman-Sigal said, addressing the Adams administration. "We should not be pausing the busway. We should be installing the busway without any delay."

He openly mocked an Oct. 16 letter sent from the Federal Highway Administration to the state and city DOTs that claimed the city failed to properly notify the federal government about its plans to install a busway similar to the existing, and successful, one on 14th Street. The Trump administration letter cites unspecified concerns about the movement of trucks and emergency vehicles along the corridor, though trucks are not banned on the busway, and emergency vehicles are not inhibited.
