More from Transportation Alternatives:

New Yorkers are being asked to pay more for less.  On top of two decades of passing the buck, Albany lawmakers cut $118 million in dedicated transit funds in 2010. Riders were handed the bill: two subway lines and 38 bus routes lost, fare hikes and service cuts citywide.  It’s time for transit riders to unite and say Enough! The Rider Rebellion is the voice of every fed-up transit rider.  If elected officials won’t stand up for riders, then to rescue transit, riders must stand up to elected officials. Join the Rider Rebellion by signing the Transit Rider Bill of Rights today!

New York City’s Transit Riding Public has the right to:

  • Equally reliable, affordable and efficient transit.
  • Fare hikes that are only enacted as a last resort when all other funding options have been exhausted, as well as stable funding for the MTA from the State and City, in good economic times and bad.
  • Accurate real-time information and clear announcements about when trains and buses will arrive before swiping a MetroCard, or upon arrival at a bus stop.
  • Well-lit and safe subway and bus facilities with MTA employees on hand to provide information and respond in case of emergency.
  • Clean, regularly maintained MTA facilities including subway stations, subway cars, buses and bus stops.
  • A more accessible transit system, with level boarding for buses and working elevators and escalators within all subway stations.
  • Helpful, courteous service from station agents, bus drivers and other MTA employees.
  • Official prioritization of the operation, maintenance and improvement of the existing train and bus network before its expansion.
  • Transparent and easily-used lines of communication between riders/MTA with mechanisms in place to address rider concerns/complaints.
  • A minimum of one transit worker and one transit rider as voting members of the MTA Board of Directors.

Add your voice to the growing coalition of individuals and organizations that have signed the Transit Rider Bill of Rights and Join the Rider Rebellion!
