 Civic Report 30 Competitive Contracting of Bus Service: A Better Deal for Riders and Taxpayers
In New York City Transit’s bus unit, as in all public monopolies, fiscal management is ultimately described by Parkinson’s Second Law: “Expenditures rise to meet income.”[24] The public agency’s income stream comes from state and city operating subsidies and from taxes dedicated for transit purposes, which rise most quickly in a growing economy.
In New York, this would mean that the setting of fares, specification of routes and administration of contracts—the role analogous to that of Transport for London—would be handled by the city Department of Transportation or by some new MTA subsidiary or public benefit corporation set up especially for that purpose.
By the late 1940s, however, the private bus operators were succumbing to the same cost pressures as New York’s formerly private subway lines—most notably the city’s insistence on maintaining the five-cent transit fare.
