MTA May Shut Down Transit Service During Hurricane Irene

Yesterday the MTA proactively offered its plan for what it will do with Hurricane Irene—and that means a partial or full shut down, if things get really messy. Here’s the agency’s statement.  Even a weakened Irene would bring winds in excess of 39 miles per hour (the speed at which the MTA can’t guarantee riders safety), making it likely that the MTA will start shutting down service Saturday morning. There could be lingering delays and service outages into Monday’s morning rush hour. (via Gothamist)
