Self-organization in the face of a NYC subway strike

There’s talk of a possible subway strike in NYC tomorrow. To help alleviate traffic problems in the case of a strike, the city is forcing people to carpool by only allowing cars with 4 or more passengers to cross over bridges into Manhatan.

This has led people to self-organize online to make their commute tomorrow morning work. Neat!
- A person looking for a 4th in his carpool to hearld square
- Discussion of the best bike routes to the Brooklyn bridge
- A map of carpool staging areas throughout the boroughs [PDF]

It’s great to see jaded New Yorkers working together.
