Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend the public authorities law, in relation to notice to be given when there is a change in service furnished upon the rapid transit facilities or the omnibus line facilities of the New York city transit authority

AI Summary

This bill requires that the New York City Transit Authority (NYCTA), which operates the city's subways and buses, must provide at least thirty days' written notice before making any significant or general changes to the services offered on its rapid transit facilities (like subways) or omnibus line facilities (like bus routes). This notice must be given not only to the mayor but also to the borough president(s), council member(s), senator(s), member(s) of assembly, and the district managers of any community board(s) whose jurisdiction includes the affected transit facility or bus line. This expands the list of officials who must be informed about service changes, ensuring broader notification to local representatives.
