The watchdog group Reinvent Albany says the AirTrain from eastern Queens to LaGuardia is expected to cost $2.1 billion —and will only serve about 6,000 riders a day.

Last month's MTA power problem that caused nearly half the subway lines to go offline for over an hour - stranding hundreds of riders - may have been due to human error.

In an effort to address climate change by reducing vehicle emissions, New York City will add electric vehicle charging stations to city-owned parking garages.

The most ubiquitous crime-fighting phrase to emerge in the aftermath of September 11 almost never made it into the American vernacular.

Governor Kathy Hochul was on the job just five days before facing her first emergency. A power surge on Sunday caused widespread outages, leaving hundreds of riders stranded.

Eight subway lines were shutdown for several hours Sunday night, after a power interruption. Early reports point to a failure at the MTA as the source of the problem.

Organizers of the Gateway project are ready to submit a major funding request to the federal government. It's the latest step to build a new Hudson rail tunnel.

New York City officials are warning that starting Monday, drivers should expect more delays than usual on the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway.  

As temperatures rise above ground, commuters often expect to step into the cool comforts of an air-conditioned subway. But it's so-called "hot car" season in the city.

The fallout from Governor Andrew Cuomo’s resignation continues. The head of New York's Department of Financial Services, Linda Lacewell, resigned Friday.

Governor Cuomo prided himself on building things that would outlast him: bridges, airports, train stations. But he also made it hard for some transit leaders to do their jobs.

In July the agency resumed trips with multiple passengers in its cars and vans. But riders and activists are raising new concerns over whether that's safe.

The debate over what to do with the most crumbling part of the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway seems to have been settled, for now; the mayor has decided to delay a decision.

The MTA has decided to honor a disability rights advocate who died earlier this year, and was known for clashing with the agency over its lack of accessible subway stations. 

The moped share company plans to place 50 Tesla taxis on Manhattan streets by next month.

Several times a year, the MTA dispatches volunteers give out free masks, which are required in subway stations, on trains and in buses.

The MTA says it won't raise fares on subways, buses or the commuter rails this year. The agency hopes this encourages more riders to return.

The MTA is moving forward with plans to extend the Second Avenue subway line into East Harlem. This week the agency will ask the board to approve more land acquisitions.

The mask mandate has dropped for many public places in New York, even though it remains in effect on mass transit. But many subway riders don't seem to realize that.

Mayor de Blasio is hoping to pressure the MTA to move forward with its congestion pricing program.
