NYC Transit was set to announce Monday it would add some subway and bus service in response to growing NYC transit ridership. Transit will add 10 train trips to weekday service, on the A, N and #1 lines, and 16 new round trips on weekend #7 trains. Bus service will be added on 69 routes in all five boroughs.
Transit advocates who have been critical of NYC Transit preparations for a ridership jump from the new weekly and monthly transit passes said the schedule changes were minor and insufficient. "This is a molecule in the drop in the bucket," said the Straphangers Campaign's Joe Rappaport.
