With the Central Subway in jeopardy of losing much of it's federal funding, this report (download .pdf) by the Civil Grand Jury exacted a Father Nelson (two half-nelsons while humping from behind) to the SFMTA for a project that is now projected to cost $1.578 billion. Charged with evaluating the real conditions as they exist now, the Grand Jury raised issues about how the Central Subway's poor design has no connection to the rest of the MUNI Metro system, the SFMTA's track record on accurately estimating project budgets; and also raised concerns about how the SFMTA has spent money it already had. In a city whose General Fund has been rode hard and put away wet in recent years, isn't time to take care of our hole, before going out and getting fucked?

MUNI finally made a bold move last week and began Nx peak-hour express bus service to supplement the burgeoning ridership of the N-LRT.  Riders can board outbound at Sansome and Sutter only, with AM inbound riders finding stops every three blocks along Judah until 19th Avenue.  Both inbound and outbound Nx service is non-stop between FiDi and 19th Avenue.
