MTA CONSIDERING STANDING-ONLY TRAIN CARS, INCLUDING ON THE 1, 2 AND 3 LINES

July 26, 2017 | 10:20 PM - Updated on June 5, 2022 | 11:44 PM

The MTA is looking into ways to ease the rush-hour crush, and the latest idea is to remove seats from subway cars to create more overall room in the car.

Joe Lhota, Governor Cuomo’s new appointee to lead the MTA, says the MTA will try removing seats on two lines, the L train and the S between Times Square and Grand Central.  But he also mentioned that it could help the Broadway line, and particularly the 96th Street station, according to the Daily News.

“The standing-room only cars would accommodate about 25 more riders than current carriages, which hold roughly 150,” the News reported.

Other cities have tried this sort of thing, but riders tend not to like it, according to a News review. In Boston, the train authority tried removing seats from some lines, but put about half of the seats back two years later after customer complaints. The MTA still needs to work with federal regulators before it can launch the pilot on the L and S lines.

This would make them highly unreasonable for those were handicapped or injured, it seems like every Deculus idea. Surely they can do better than removing all the seats

I am 87 years old and am generally surprised how helpful people are on the subways and busses and offering me a sit. Most New Yorkers are helpful and polite. Most NYC people are very nice. It is a great city with some wonderful people.

I’ve been living here on the upper West side for 50 years I have never use the subway and never planned to. My office sends me a limo every day. I think people who take subway don’t deserve seating… what do you want for the price you pay for subway or bus ?

I am going to go one step further. I believe the MTA should subsidize your limo rides. And include limo rides to for your children to ps199. Or if they go to a fancy boarding school, the MTA should provide transportation there too.

The handicapped and the injured as you put it rarelyride the subway. It’s a system designed to get people to and from work. Lately it has been overrun by tourists. The handicapped use a bus or Access A Ride. There are always campaigns to make the subway accessible. Realistically it isn’t going to happen on any grand scale.

I used it quite a bit with a broken ankle, and continue to use it with a damaged knee – on my way too and from work (and elsewhere in the city). People have actually been pretty good about letting me have a seat when the injuries have been bad, and even now, when I don’t get a seat given to me, I can usually get an empty seat before standing on my leg is completely intolerable. That would no longer be possible if they remove the seats altogether.

In any event, we are all better off if more people commute, and it is a legal requirement (at least for now) to make the system available to those with disabilities. Removing the seats would be a step in the wrong direction.

I am 63 years old, with some health issues. I live on the Upper West Side and work in the Bronx. The only way I can manage a daily round trip to the Bronx is because I usually get a seat on the #2 train. This decision would seriously impact my ability to continue working. I hope common sense prevails.

Very few people really need to sit on the subway. If people have the strength to push themselves into a train before letting others out and past people to race to a seat, they have the strength to stand for the ride.
Sorry, that goes for pregnant women too who aren’t in the last few days of their pregnancy. I just love hearing pregnant women who go to a spin class in the morning or ride a bike for exercise and then whine that a person didn’t give up their seat on the subway so they could sit for a 10 minute ride. Americans are shockingly weak compared to so many other cultures when it comes to pregnancy.
I first realized this when my mother told me how silly it all was. She had 5 kids, worked until a few days before delivery with each one, and stayed physically active each time.

I’ve been pregnant and was just fine standing on the subway to/from work. The very worst was when I had severe morning sickness the first 3.5 months but no one would have known I was pregnant then so I just stood, chewed on ginger candy and hopped off at a station if I felt too ill.
My pregnant friends and I continued to go to spin/barre/gym classes and walk in the park throughout our pregnancies. If a seat was open on a non-crowded car I took it sometimes but if not, no big deal.
I will say that what I did need was a pole to hold onto as pregnancy does kind of throw off your balance a little.

Your comment is very misleading. Congrats on your easy pregnancy but mine was a very high risk and I badly needed those seats. So did quite a few of my friends during their pregnancy. And no, we couldn’t exercise and then take a subway. And before I hear from trolls – not everyone can afford a taxi every day.

First you assumed that people don’t need seats as evidenced by their pushing in to the car before allowing passengers to exit and then they run to seats. You must know that the elderly/disabled are not doing that, yet they are the ones requiring a seat.

Then you assume that all pregnant women do not require seats. That’s just not the case.

What about seats for the elderly & disabled ?
Anyone thought of adding more trains, more frequently ?

I don’t think it is acceptable to remove all the seats, but it is quite reasonable to remove half of them. This would provide a way for disabled/elderly/etc to have a seat, yet provide more overall room at the rush hours. And we really need the room.

Removing most (but not all) of the seats from the S is actually a decent idea as it is a very short ride that gets very crowded at rush hour, so getting a few more people on each train is helpful. But leave a few seats for those who really need it. And have the trains run as frequently as possible – fill the train and get it out of the station.

Removing seats for regular lines that go longer distances is not a good idea.

The article does not say they are removing the seats from all cars on the train. If removing the seats on say, 2 of the 10 (or so) cars of the train adds more capacity, and speeds things up I think it could be an improvement. Especially if the seatless cars are always in the same position (second to first and second to last maybe?) and there is clear signage on the platform so you know you are waiting in front of a car where you will have to stand.

I don’t believe it would play out that way but to your point they could then designate more seats for elderly/disabled people. Make it more clear that those seats are reserved for those people so people that aren’t aware of our culture of giving up your seat to them will hopefully be more clear.

I’ve taken thousands of subway rides and have never seen an elderly person or disabled person forced to stand. Someone will always do the right thing in my experience. I know I have many times.

It would make more sense to remove some seats on more cars, rather than all seats on a couple of cars, because people who need seats may not realize they are in a standing-only car until it is too late.

Don’t think the overcrowding would be solved by taking out seats … I think the over crowding would be solved by having more trains running (and running properly) … I have never seen more understand a system that can be so crippled by the slightest thing … a signal problem with tie up the system for hours — a sick customer with cripple the system for hours — a track fire will cripple the system for hours — a disabled train with cripple the system for hours … last week at the height of the heatwave 3 days out of it I had to ride trains that had no AC … having been in other countries transit systems those car would never been allowed to run unless they had functioning AC … there seems to be a very slow and ponderous reaction time to and issue that develops and this compounds the problems throughout the system — I also do no think the MTA needs so many board members that are paid salaries that most NYrs will never see in a lifetime — I think the board members should come from the average ridership so that they can directly influence the systemic problems …

Btw,

It is NOT that the whole train would be standing room only. Some cars. As long as people reliably knew where to go (I.e., elderly, handicapped, etc.) it should not affect their ability to use system.

Every idea the MTA proposes is to the disadvantage of the rider. Imagine being in one of those cars when the train derails or gets stuck indefinitely? Next they’ll be talking about hiring train pushers like they have in Japan; people whose job it is to literally push the people into the jam-packed cars to get the doors closed.

If you are the rider who is now getting on the train because there is more room rather then being left behind in the station due to a full train, I think this is potentially really to your advantage.

You can easily get rid of 50% of the seats in a train car, have plenty of seats for those who really need them, and create more space.

Also, please remember that many of those who need seats the most visually appear to be fine. Bad back or foot pain cannot be seen and often afflicts those who are younger.

disgusting – NYC can do better than that – more subway cars would be a start – MTA supposed to serve the public – and this is the best plan they can come up with? How about people who need seats – parents with small kids,those who travel long distances especially at rush hour, the elderly, the handicapped, tourists with luggage, etc, etc, etc.
I suggest cutting the salaries of the executives and tying any increases or bonuses to results – after all who pays the salaries? Our taxes and our fares….then do not come up with a sleazy solution – this is the 21st century stop thinking like it’s the 19th century.

It’s a terrible idea. If the train got stuck you’ll be standing for who knows how long. I’ve always given up my seat for someone who needed it more than me, but I am getting older now and need to sit if it’s a long ride. Also, if I am standing when the train is crowded, it’s so awkward to hold on with arms going in all directions. God forbid the train is bumpy and you knock into someone, you could be harmed by an arrogant passenger.

On the subway ride home tonight I thought on what removing seats in the subway cars would entail. In order to remove the seats the attached poles would also have to be removed. The poles and seat appear to be a single fixture. New poles would have to be designed and fabricated so passengers would not hit their heads and still have something to hold on to. Seats can accommodate 40 passengers, so an additional 65 people would now be standing. Also in some cars the ceiling is lower at the sides of the cars-no room for tall passengers to stand.

I skimmed through the comments and am amazed that not one of you understand why seatless cars are coming. The city wants to stop the thousands of homeless who sleep on the trains and take up seats. That is a big part of this plan. How does the city get the homeless out of the subway? If there are few or no seats on trains and in stations the homeless can’t camp out there. The city can expand and improve access a ride for disabled folks. This is about the homeless.
