Service alerts in the MTA system are generated to inform passengers of both scheduled and unscheduled events that affect the transit network. These events can range from planned maintenance and construction activities to unexpected incidents such as accidents, track maintenance or planned work and more. The process of creating alerts involves the continuous monitoring of the transit system, including station locations, track statuses, and external factors that might impact service. When a potential disruption is identified, an alert is generated to provide passengers with timely and accurate information about how their travel might be affected.

Wait Assessment measures how regularly trains are spaced during peak hours at selected timepoints on each line.

On-Time Performance (OTP) determines how frequently a commuter train arrives at its final destination within 5 minutes and 59 seconds of its scheduled time.

Additional Bus Stop Time is the average time that customers spend waiting at a stop beyond their scheduled wait time.

Additional Travel Time is the average time customers spend onboard a bus beyond their scheduled travel time.

Customer Journey Time Performance is the percentage of customers whose journeys are completed within 5 minutes of their scheduled time.

This dataset covers data between 2017 and 2019. For data from 2020 on, use https://data.ny.gov/Transportation/MTA-Bus-Customer-Journey-Focused-Metrics-Beginning/wrt8-4b59/about_data.

Passenger Environment Survey indicators combine the results of surveys of a number of different aspects of station conditions to measure passenger comfort and convenience.

A dataset listing all subway and Staten Island Railway stations, with information on their locations, Station Master Reference Number (MRN), Complex MRN, GTFS Stop ID, the services that stop there, the type of structure the station is on or in, whether the station is in Manhattan’s Central Business District (CBD), and their ADA-accessibility status.

This file contains data on the number and types of vehicles that entered from each entry point on the tolled section of the Thruway with their exit points.

This file contains data on the number and types of vehicles that entered from each entry point on the tolled section of the Thruway with their exit points.

This retired dataset contains information on entry/exit values for individual control areas and is posted purely for archival purposes. More detailed subway ridership data is now supported through https://data.ny.gov/Transportation/MTA-Subway-Hourly-Ridership-Beginning-February-202/wujg-7c2s.

The 2025-2044 20-Year Needs Assessment Comparative Evaluation is a framework which assesses the costs and benefits of potential expansions and enhancements. All potential projects are evaluated using a consistent set of models, tools, and criteria including ridership, time savings, network resilience and sustainability, capacity, equity, network leverage, geographic distribution, and cost. The most promising projects may be advanced for further study and possible inclusion in future capital plans.

This dataset provides a detailed breakout of the dedicated taxes and subsidies received from the State of New York and businesses, individuals and localities in the MTA region. This data is obtained from the MTA’s annual budgeting process and is available for each month of a fiscal year, on both an accrual (represented as NREIMB) and a cash basis. Data is categorized by budget scenario, Agency, Financial Plan Year, and subcategories for types of subsidies.

Service Reliability metrics evaluate MNR’s ability to deliver timely and effective service to its customers. Included in these metrics are: Service Type, Major Incidents, 4m to 6m Train Delays, Average Delay per Late Train, Number of Trains Over 15 Minutes Late, Number of Short Trains.

This dataset lists all LIRR trains that are delayed, with information on whether a train is cancelled, partially cancelled, or late (in a rounded number of minutes), the train number, and the branch the train operates on. For the cause of delays, use dataset https://data.ny.gov/Transportation/MTA-LIRR-Delays-Beginning-2010/e32g-kbe9, which is updated monthly.

This dataset contains the file of vehicle, snowmobile and boat registrations in NYS. Expired registrations are excluded. Records that have a scofflaw, revocation and/or suspension are included with indicators specifying this.

Annual Average Daily Traffic (AADT) is an estimate of the average daily traffic along a defined segment of roadway. This value is calculated from short term counts taken along the same section which are then factored to produce the estimate of AADT. Because of this process, the most recent AADT for any given roadway will always be for the previous year. Data is available for all New York State Routes and roads that are part of the Federal Aid System.

On-Time Performance (OTP) determines how frequently a commuter train arrives at its final destination within 5 minutes and 59 seconds of its scheduled time.

This indicator shows the number of subway and bus journeys made each month by passengers using Reduced-Fare MetroCards between 2018 and 2023. This dataset is now retired, with data on reduced-fare usage of the transit system available in the hourly bus (https://data.ny.gov/Transportation/MTA-Bus-Hourly-Ridership-Beginning-February-2022/kv7t-n8in/) and subway (https://data.ny.gov/Transportation/MTA-Subway-Hourly-Ridership-Beginning-February-202/wujg-7c2s/) ridership datasets.

The percent of the time that elevators and escalators are operational systemwide.

This retired dataset provides financial information on total positions in Function/Department related to different MTA Agencies budgetary estimates and actuals. For a more comprehensive view of this data, please use MTA Headcount at data.ny.gov/d/ui26-n8p4.

This dataset shows the geographic locations of the branches on the LIRR used in passenger service as of 2013. It does not include a more recent change, namely the opening of the line to Grand Central Madison. It will be updated in the future to account for this.

This data set includes sidewalks on the roads system under the jurisdiction of NYSDOT. It contains the Regional Office responsible for the management of this feature, the state county where the feature is located, and the route name and number for sidewalks on state-owned routes within New York State. The data set does not include sidewalks on non-state owned routes such as those owned by cities, towns or villages within the state.
