Transit and Infrastructure Recent Threads Cleanup

BussesAin'tTrains · 02-20-2015, 02:30 PM

Can we figure out how to clean up the Transit and Infrastructure forum a bit? At least the "Snow Storm Shutdown" and "Scott Resigns" threads?

There's a TON of cross-posting going on, and parallel conversations which really should be taking place together.

I've posted my thoughts in both of those threads on where things should go.

IMO:

MBTA service suspensions/resumptions and other issues should go back in the "Driven by Customer 'Service'" thread, where that stuff normally goes.
Merge the Scott resignation thread and the snowpocalypse thread and rename it something like "MBTA Collapse & the Future" for us to keep discussing the government's response to the T's woes, and debate solutions.

Thoughts?

I agree. Merge the "Dr. Beverly Scott resigns" and "MBTA & Regular Driving May Be Shut Down During Coming Snowstorm!" threads into a "MBTA Winter 2015: Failure and Recovery" or something of the sort.
