Federal Transit Administration boss Marc Molinaro has accused the MTA of ignoring its own safety rules following the 2023 death of a worker who was struck by a train, as well as a second incident last year in which a worker was hit, but survived. Molinaro, a former New York GOP congressman, demanded the agency submit a third safety and risk assessment, arguing the prior two reports were “flawed” and threatening to cut funding if the transit authority fails to “adequately” account for “escalating risk trends. ” “I am disturbed by MTA’s failure to reinforce safety measures following serious accidents — one resulting in the death of a transit worker,” Molinaro told The Post of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority.
