MTA Service Update: NYC Buses and Subways Running Normally After Snowstorm

MTA Service Status Post-Storm

• 🚆 MTA buses and subways are operating on a regular weekday schedule following the recent snowstorm.
• 🚂 Long Island Railroad and Metro North are also running a robust schedule with 550 Metro North trains and 750 Long Island Railroad trains.

Storm Preparedness and Response

• 🛠️ Approximately 15,000 MTA workers were deployed over the weekend to ensure service continuity.
• ⚠️ While the system largely ran smoothly, there were isolated incidents of stranded buses due to road conditions and frozen subway/commuter railroad switches that briefly interrupted service.
• 🚌 Buses were chained prior to the storm as a preventative measure.

Commuter Guidance

• 🏠 Governor Hochul is encouraging remote work for those who can.
• ✅ For essential workers like construction workers, nurses, and plumbers, the MTA assures that service is available to get them where they need to go.
