De Blasio goes regional with new planning office

October 13, 2015

“There’s no way to buy a ticket in New Jersey to get to Citi Field,” said Martin Robins, the founding director of the Alan M. Voorhees Transportation Center at Rutgers University. “You have to go into Penn Station and then stand on line at the [ticket] machines and you miss endless numbers of Long Island Rail Road trains.”

For the record, as of Monday afternoon, Robins was planning to watch the game on TV, though he does venture to Citi Field a few times a year, obstacles notwithstanding.
