BY RICH KNUTSON Hello summer. Is it about time or what? We went from rain rain everywhere to hot hot hot. In honor of the summer's arrival, I have updated the transportation links once again. You now have before you not only Long Island links but New York Regional links. Long Island Bus, Subways & Buses and the Bridges and Tunnels are under the MTA banner. I have included the link for Metro North. New to the links is information on E-Z Pass and TransitChek. If you need to get anywhere or find out online information on any mode of transportation on Long Island or the New York Metro Area, look here first. If you find that I am missing a particular link, please let me know. Everyone have an enjoyable and happy summer. Happy trails. ---------- Rich Knutson is a born and bred Long Islander who understands the joys and frustration of getting around on Long Island.
