Snowfall totals within the Northeast are snarling transit. NYC MTA manages all transit in New York City. Their site, however, is nevertheless down. Major routes for New Jersey transit are still online. The LIRR, however, is using option transport.
The MTA trip planner is there for you
The MTA in New York City is mostly running all routes. It’s the only service doing this still. The Metropolitan Transportation Authority transit planner is hard to access though. Lately this has been the case. There is a ton of traffic on the Metropolitan Transportation Authority NYC site. This is causing servers to be crashed. It isn’t that essential to use the Metropolitan Transportation Authority transit planner though. There is another option. MTA and Google partnered quite a while ago to create transit maps on Google maps. The MTA route for the trip you would like to take can be shown to you with the Google Transit MTA Trip Planner. You might want to call the Metropolitan Transportation Authority at (718) 243-7777 to confirm this though thinking about Google Transit Maps are depending on there being no problems.
You are able to access NJ Transit online services also
The New Jersey transit service is trying to clear bus and light rail services as quickly as possible. You will find 15 to 20 minute delays on some of the rails lines with an enhanced holiday schedule that trains are running on. The NJ Station explains that “getting to the station could be trouble enough.” This is why it’s encouraging riders to stay home if they can. If you are using the NJ Transit trip planner, officials are suggesting using Jan. 17, 2011 as the “travel date” to get accurate plans.
Loan Island Railroad up-to-date information
Getting passengers around with the Long Island RR has been difficult too. There have been 16 inches and more in some places of snowfall. Also, until 6 p.m. Monday, there has been a blizzard warning. The LIRR is using scraper shoes, jet-powered snow blowers, hot-air jets, snow brooms and other snow clearing equipment to clear the rail lines. Many trains are getting stuck even though about 10 stations are running. New York City transit MTA services are honoring tickets for subway service from Penn, Atlantic Terminal and Jamaica stations.
Are you trying to get on the MTA, Long Island Rail Road, or NJ Transit today in the Northeast? It’s working?
