As NYC Open Data Week comes to a close, we're proud to share the third annual update to the MTA's Open Data Plan. The plan highlights our 2024 open data accomplishments and previews what’s to come for 2025: mta.info/open-data In the three years since Governor Hochul and the State Legislature enacted the MTA Open Data Law, we’ve spent hours engaging with community members and published over 165 datasets to the New York Open Data Portal, with topics ranging from ridership, public safety, operating budget, and more. Looking to 2025, we’re excited to provide even more high-quality datasets that explore even more corners of the MTA and allows data users to advocate for a more reliable and safe transit system.

NYCT President Demetrius Crichlow on the 5-year anniversary of Garrett Goble's passing: “None of us in the Transit family will ever forget the sacrifice and bravery of Train Operator Garrett Goble, who died while literally walking through a wall of smoke saving passengers on his train after one rider deliberately started a fire. Garrett's memory lives on at the Flatbush Av-Brooklyn College station, where a mural with his portrait was unveiled a year after his passing. Generations of train operators will learn about his courage, which was in the finest tradition of public service.”

It’s the end of an era: MetroCard sales will end on December 31, 2025 as part of our transition to contactless fare payment for subway and buses. Tap-and-go fare payment is already accepted on all subways and buses, and can be used by students, Fair Fares recipients, and Reduced-Fare customers. You can tap to pay with your contactless credit or debit card, digital wallet, or with an OMNY card. Don’t wait—start tapping today! MetroCards will continue to be accepted into 2026.
