Videos of women sharing stories of being assaulted on streets in Manhattan are trending on TikTok. WNYC’s Giulia Heyward has more. Also, the Department of Transportation recently approved the use of longer e-cargo bikes to take the place of traditional large delivery trucks. The approved bikes are pedal-assist electric bikes that look like mini trucks and take only one person to operate. Finally, Long Island Rail Road customers are enjoying expanded service thanks to the Third Track project completed in 2022. But building that additional track to relieve one of New York’s worst transit bottlenecks wasn’t easy. A new report in Newsday finds that the MTA spent $20 million on projects in Nassau County that had nothing to do with the LIRR to shore up support for the project. WNYC’s Sean Carlson speaks with reporters Alfonso Castillo and Darwin Yanes who broke the news.
