News and Views Bonus Episode: Victory in Court: 2nd Avenue Subway Funding Unfrozen

This episode of Transportopia News and Views covers four key transit stories: the federal government releasing nearly $60 million for New York's 2nd Avenue subway extension, MARTA launching its Rapid A-Line BRT in Atlanta, Mayor Zoran Mamdani postponing full implementation of his Fast and Free Buses pledge due to budget constraints, and Sacramento Regional Transit studying a redevelopment of a park-and-ride into a mixed-use, transit-oriented district.

Together these stories highlight the tension between ambitious transit goals and the financial and political realities that shape what gets built and when.
