MTA's 2025-2029 capital plan includes major updates like phasing out 40-year-old subway cars for a newer fleet, enhancing reliability and passenger experience.
MTA Chair Janno Lieber emphasized the need to retire 40-year-old subway cars, highlighting the advantages of newer R211 trains, which offer more accessibility and fewer failures.
With a $10.9 billion budget, the MTA plans to replace nearly 2,000 aging railcars, focusing on modern features like brighter lighting and digital signage.
The new subway cars will not only be compatible with modern signaling technology, but will also improve passenger comfort and safety, marking a significant upgrade.
