Governor Andrew M. Cuomo today unveiled the design features of 1,025 new and reimagined subway cars – including vital enhancements to the exteriors and interiors of regular cars, wider doors, as well as the addition of up to 750 “Open Car End” designed-cars, which will reduce wait times and increase capacity.
The Governor also previewed key elements that will be featured in the renovation of 31 subway stations throughout the New York Metropolitan Area, and announced that the first of several Requests for Proposals will be issued this week.
The MTA is using design-build contracts to expedite the process and ensure the shortest timeframe for project completion.
These vital investments are part of the $27 billion, five-year MTA Capital Program to renew and expand the MTA network.
