Booth Closing — Coming to a Station Near You

Last week, Transport Workers Union Local 100 released a preliminary list of 62 subway station booths they said the MTA planned to close later this year.

Brooklyn will see the most closures with 23 entries on the list. Riders on the A, F, G, N/R, and D trains riders will be hit hardest.

The list below outlines the stations where TWU representatives say at least one booth will be closed. The MTA says it will not release an official list of station booth closures until sometime in May.
