The University Transportation Research Center (UTRC), for Region 2 (NY, NJ & Puerto Rico), held a NYC Mayoral Candidates’ Transportation Forum at Baruch College on June 19th, moderated by Distinguished Lecturer and former NYC Taxi & Limousine Commissioner Matthew W. Daus, Esq. Since that time, the UTRC forum has inspired every candidate to issue comprehensive transportation policy plans and platforms. As promised at the UTRC Mayoral Forum, the valuable ideas and positions of all candidates before, during and after the forum were carefully tracked, analyzed and set forth in detail in this final report entitled: New York City 2013 Mayoral Election Transportation Policy & Issue Primer: Candidates’ Positions and Plans. This seminal report will serve as a primer on transportation policy issues facing the next Mayor, as well as a reference tool for voters, the media, academics and others interested in transportation policy making and the future of NYC. A sequel report will be released prior to the General Election scheduled forNovember 5, 2013, covering the updated and evolving positions of not only the Democratic and Republican nominees, but also of the Independence Party and any other major independent candidates.

This report is structured based on the topics selected for the Mayoral Forum, with additional categories and policy statements of candidates who both participated and did not participate in the event. The report is organized around the issues, with a primer or brief history framing the debate, and then analyzing, explaining and comparing the positions of the various candidates - in chart format. As an appendix to the report, each candidate’s biography and transportation policy plans and statements are set forth in a similar organizational framework - based on the forum topics - but with additional details and statements supporting each candidate’s positions.
