A train fight causes 90-minute delays, says NYC Transit president

 

 

 

Thursday’s rush-hour brawl on the A train should never have had such a devastating impact on commutes, according to the MTA.

Byford to NYPD: ‘You cannot stop the service for 90 minutes for a fight’

 

 

A disputed seat becomes a fight between passengers becomes a crime scene becomes a 90-minute rush-hour delay to police activity. It all happens in the blink of an eye as it did last Thursday morning when a fight on an A train at High St. snarled rush hour service on both the 6th and 8th Avenue lines for 90 minutes. And now it’s touched off a bit of a war of words between new NYC Transit President Andy Byford and the NYPD over the right way for the cops to respond to subway disruptions so as not to snarl service for hundreds of thousands of riders.
