Bill Summary
AN ACT to amend the public authorities law, in relation to directing the metropolitan transportation authority to establish a city university of New York student fare program
AI Summary
This bill directs the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA), a public benefit corporation responsible for public transportation in the New York metropolitan area, to create a special fare program for students attending the City University of New York (CUNY). This program will offer CUNY students a full fare reduction for five train or bus rides each weekday, between 5:00 a.m. and 11:00 p.m., equivalent to the standard pay-per-ride fare, meaning students will only pay the reduced fare, not the full cost of the ride.
