"MTA Chair and CEO Janno Lieber stated, 'Nobody needs to stay home because the World Cup is happening.' The MTA is committed to providing good service during the competition."
"Lieber mentioned, 'We're studying where the special events overlap with other special events, and how our service and the work and the construction work that's going on in the summer overlap.' This indicates a proactive approach to service planning."
"The World Cup is expected to attract 1.2 million visitors to the region, but local hotel and tourism leaders noted that bookings have not met initial projections."
"Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Gov. Kathy Hochul introduced fan zones in each borough, allowing New Yorkers to watch the games without incurring high ticket and transportation costs."
MTA Chair Janno Lieber announced that New Yorkers should utilize public transit during the FIFA World Cup final match days in East Rutherford, NJ. The MTA will provide regular and enhanced subway and bus services during the eight local match days from mid-June to mid-July. The agency is preparing to accommodate various needs, including work and school commutes. Additionally, the city will host free fan events in each borough for residents to watch the games without high costs.
