An act to amend the public authorities law, in relation to commuter safety
Purpose/summary of provisions
This bill will require an analysis of the impact that a proposed reduction in transit authority personnel or services will have on commuter safety.
Justification
The New York City Transit Authority recently announced a proposal which would reduce the hours for operation of many token booths in the four boroughs. Some of the proposed booth closings are relatively modest however, others will cause hundreds of riders to go blocks out of their way to reach their destination. Regardless of the outcome of this most recent proposal, this legislation will ensure that the safety of riders is of utmost concern in the minds of the Transit Authorities.
Fiscal implications
No cost to the State.
Effective date
This act shall take effect immediately.
