The connection between Brooklyn and Manhattan on the L line became the first tunnel in the New York City subway system to have full connectivity for AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile customers, MTA officials said.īRONX LOCAL BUS Network Redesign Fact Sheet Part 1 In recent years, MTA officials said the agency has made significant strides improving connectivity, which have included partnering with Transit Wireless to bring cell service and Wi-Fi to all underground subway stations in 2017, and in 2020, bringing cellular coverage and data connectivity to the L Train tunnel. “We look forward to closing the remaining cellular coverage and data connectivity gaps in our subway system,” he said. MTA president of construction and development, Jamie Torres-Springer, said this latest advancement in technology would be coordinated with other work taking place throughout the system, involving fitting out hundreds of miles of tunnels to enable cell service between stations, and supporting MTA operational needs. MTA officials said Transit Wireless would design, build and operate a neutral-host network that provides every subway tunnel in the system with a wireless communication connection. Furthermore, according to agency officials, once live, it will enable Transit Wireless to improve the existing MTA communication system and generate revenue by marketing unused fiber to private customers. While, all underground stations currently have cell service and Wi-Fi, the proposed agreement would expand this to provide connectivity in tunnels between stations, and in above-ground stations, according to the MTA.

“We look forward to using the enhanced connectivity to improve the service information we provide for customers,” he added. “Having uninterrupted network connection underground will reimagine how New Yorkers travel by providing the opportunity to take advantage of every minute of their commute with cell service and internet connection, which can also ease any traveling obstacles visitors face when trying to navigate the system,” he said. Meanwhile, NYC Transit president, Richard Davey, said New Yorkers lived in a digitally connected world and the MTA serves a City that is always on the go. “Bringing cell connectivity to the tunnels between stations and Wi-Fi to above-ground stations is a major step forward in enhancing transit riders’ experience, and the deal MTA has landed will also help the MTA’s bottom line, a major concern as the pandemic winds down,” said MTA chair and CEO, Janno Lieber. A proposed expansion would transform the subway system into a fully digitally connected transit network that gives riders the ability to use their mobile devices throughout the entire subway system. Transit customers can currently use cellular and Wi-Fi service at all 281 underground subway stations through Transit Wireless, a BAI communications company. The Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) recently announced a public-private partnership to provide cell coverage throughout all 418 track miles of subway tunnels, along with an expansion of Wi-Fi service to all 191 above-ground subway and 21 Staten Island Railway stations.
