Directs the MTA to study a unified, single city fare zone across NYC's railroads.
The bill authorizes and directs the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) to conduct a study on a unified, single city fare zone across New York City's railroads, including the Long Island Rail Road and Metro-North. The study aims to explore the feasibility and benefits of a single fare zone for all intracity commuter rail options with free transfers to New York City Transit. The MTA is required to report the findings of this study to the governor and the legislature. The study is intended to ensure equitable access to affordable transit for residents of areas not served by the subway.
