'Other cities, eg London, manage their escalators much better.'Recently, yes. But for many years the length of time needed for escalator repair/replacement work in London was pretty much as bad as in NYC. It took a lot of work at improving project management methods to get London to the position it is in today - where, when an escalator goes our of service, they can say with reasonable accuracy when it will be back. It's also a case of needs must. In most NYC stations (with a few obvious exceptions like Roosevelt Island), escalators are a luxury. In most London stations, they are a necessity. |
