Transportation

You don’t need a car to get around NYC. Here’s some advice about the travel options you have here:

Transit websites

Find maps, schedules, fares, trip planners, and service status alerts from the following public transit agencies:

  • Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) City Transit  subway and buses in NYC. An MTA mobile app is available.

  • Long Island Rail Road commuter rail on Long Island. MTA mobile app includes LIRR information.

  • Metro-North Railroad commuter rail north of NYC to Westchester  and Putnam Counties and Connecticut. MTA mobile app includes Metro-North information.

  • NJ Transit commuter trains, buses, and ferries to New Jersey. An NJ Transit mobile app is available.

  • Register online for Notify NYC Emergency Alerts that can be personalized to the zip codes where you live, work, and study. Notifications include weather alerts, information about major transit disruptions, and other emergency updates. A mobile app is available.

Subway 

It’s convenient, quick, and affordable. Each ride is $2.90, but depending on how often you plan to ride the subway, you may save money with a 30-day unlimited Metro card ($132). The MTA charges $1 for each new MetroCard purchased at a MetroCard vending machine, station booth, or commuter rail station. They have now installed OMNY, the contactless payment system. You can use your contactless credit or debit card, smartphone, or wearable device to tap and go. You will get free transfers if you use the same card to transfer to a bus. You get free rides after paying for 12 fares within 7 days.
