For more than a year the MTA knew Baltimore’s subway tracks violated safety standards before the emergency shutdown last week.

According to the Baltimore Sun, seventeen of the Metro’s turns were deemed to be “deteriorated to the point where no train movement is allowed” in a November 2016 evaluation. But the trains continued running for more than a year in anticipation of track replacement scheduled for this summer.

MTA Administrator Kevin Quinn said, “Our riders were never in any danger.”

Tabitha Mccoy Ain’t no question that they knew. It would shutdown in the tunnel every morning inside of the tunnel and I would be late for school. They definitely knew.

Michael J Thb Just goes to show, Money before Safety…..Their priorities vary depending on the zip code it reflects.
