This outreach is part of the MTA’s ‘Connect With Us’ forum. The program aims to create open conversation about issues like safety, changes to stations and service improvements.
"We've got 100% of our pre-COVID ridership back in the northbound direction from the station,” said Metro-North President Catherine Rinaldi. “So it's really important to make sure that these customers have an excellent experience and we want to talk to them about what we can do to ensure that that continues."
