A man wears a face mask and surgical gloves to prevent Covid-19 spread, at the New York City subway train in New York, United States on March 11, 2020.The New York City subway, the largest public transit system in the world, could see devastating cuts without federal aid.
At a board meeting Wednesday, Metropolitan Transportation Authority leaders warned of 40% service reductions that could result in subway wait times more than doubling, while headway on railroads into the city from neighboring suburbs could stretch up to two hours. Fares, meanwhile, would continue to rise, and plans for long-term projects like new elevators in stations, electric buses, and badly needed signal upgrades would be put on hold.
"The MTA cannot solve the pandemic-related fiscal crisis without federal assistance," Chairman Pat Foye said. "No one at the MTA wants to take any of the actions we outlined today. No one wants to cut service. No one wants to eliminate these jobs."
