Prohibits NYC transit authority subways or trains from operating without at least one conductor on board.

The bill amends the public authorities law to mandate that any subway or train operated by the New York City Transit Authority for passenger transport must have at least one conductor on board, except where it is currently permissible. The presence of a conductor is deemed necessary to ensure improved safety for passengers during emergencies, especially in light of heightened security concerns following the events of September 11, 2001, and recent terrorist threats against the subway system.
