NEW YORK, NY July 08, 2005 —New York City buses and subways are running smoothly this morning, with an increased security presence following yesterday's bombings in London. However, New York Senators Chuck Schumer and Hillary Clinton say the federal government has to do more to protect transit systems from terrorists.

The two Democrats called the London bombings a "wake up call."

A homeland security spending bill is expected in the Senate next week, and Schumer says he'll seek to quadruple the amount now slated to monitor mass transit.

Meanwhile, New Yorkers will notice a visible increase in police and security patrols. Police Commissioner Ray Kelly has ordered at least one officer on every train during the morning and afternoon rush hour. He says they'll stay there for the forseeable future.

Officials like Mayor Bloomberg are urging New Yorkers to continue business as usual. Transit officials reminded riders to keep alert, as always, to anything supicious.

Meanwhile, the city is taking an active role in the bombing investigation. Four New York City detectives left for London following the attacks.
