Lawmakers can score points by demanding “fixes” to the widely hated Port Authority — so it’s no surprise a bunch of them were doing just that last week.

Three Garden State legislators and one New Yorker, all Democrats, insist Gov. Chris Christie sign a New Jersey bill calling for PA reforms. But Christie seems to prefer New York’s differing reform bill, which the lawmakers say doesn’t go far enough. (Both states must pass the same law for it to take effect.)

Let’s cut to the chase here: The calls for more “reform,” at this point, are mainly theater. Yes, some fixes (more open meetings, outside auditing) have merit. But some (putting union rules above the inspector general’s right to conduct interviews) don’t.

And some are just for show — like letting lawmakers summon PA officials to hearings when they already have that power.

Besides, the PA has already adopted some modest reforms at Christie and Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s request.

And no reform (short of blowing up the PA) is likely to produce huge improvements in the management of this $8 billion-a-year behemoth. The best hope now lies in honest management.

Executive Director Pat Foye — the guy who put an end to the Christie crowd’s deadly Bridgegate tricks — has done a good job infuriating all the hacks by keeping the PA on the straight and narrow. He’s also moved the authority to slim down a bit — selling some real estate — and focus on its core mission: regional transportation.

Foye planned to quit in March, but all the fighting over reform has made it hard to find a replacement, so he’s agreed to stay on.

With that result, we’re happy to see the squabbling continue.
