Gov. Kathy Hochul had proposed expanding the programs beyond New York City, but they do not have enough support, her office said.

Many people who commute into Manhattan got their first taste of the crowded platforms that are expected to become common over the next month as the Portal Bridge is reworked.

Construction on the new Portal North Bridge is expected to disrupt commutes into Manhattan on NJ Transit, PATH and Amtrak trains beginning on Sunday.

The mayor is seeking the governor’s help in making bus service free when the New York City area plays host to the soccer tournament this summer.

The fare card is dead. How much longer can these New York artists stretch a finite supply?

Mass transit is slowly getting back to normal around the city.

The small but symbolic gesture, at the foot of the Williamsburg Bridge, signals more ambitious street redesign plans from the new mayor.

Fares will also increase on the Long Island Rail Road and Metro-North Railroad, as will tolls at several of the city’s bridges and tunnels.

With the MetroCard retiring at the end of 2025, the OMNY system will become the only way to pay for most transit riders.

The bill, which would ensure that every train has a conductor and a driver, as most now do, was supported by the transit workers’ union and opposed by many transit advocates.

At a demonstration of devices designed to replace turnstiles, one rider got hit in the neck, and another sneaked through without paying.

Gov. Kathy Hochul said the state would spend another $77 million on police patrols in the subway, acknowledging that felony assaults remain stubbornly high.
