Mask Use Remains Mandatory in the MTA System.
Governor Andrew M. Cuomo announced that the New York City Subway will resume 24 hour a day service beginning May 17. The MTA will continue its disinfection and cleaning effort.
Beginning May 6, 2020, New York City Transit closed for disinfection from 1:00 a.m. to 5:00 a.m. The MTA provided free alternative transportation options to essential workers during the overnight hours that included a significant expansion of bus service across the city and for-hire vehicles as necessary.
On February 15, Governor Cuomo announced that the MTA would partially restore overnight service on the New York City subway, pending continued positive trends in New York's COVID indicators. Effective Monday, February 22, the MTA extended late-night subway service by two hours, moving to a 2:00 a.m. – 4:00 a.m. closure daily.
Mask compliance in the system remains high, with more than 97 percent of customers wearing a mask when riding mass transit. These COVID-related measures will remain in effect for the foreseeable future. The MTA also unveiled updates to the subway map that allow riders to find the nearest vaccination site throughout the city.
