About this episode

Police are currently investigating a crash that occurred last night between an MTA bus and a construction lift in Midtown Manhattan, which resulted in five injuries. Meanwhile, environmentalists express concern over a city plan allowing New Yorkers to dispose of yard waste in plastic bags. Despite another loss for the Yankees, fans have a bright spot to look forward to: Derek Jeter’s upcoming “Old Timers Day” appearance. Also, Governor Phil Murphy’s climate initiatives in New Jersey, including offshore wind and natural gas reductions, face strong opposition, potentially impacting wind power development along the East Coast. WNYC’s Nancy Solomon has more. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.
