NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) New York City subways resumed 24-hour service overnight, but there are growing concerns about safety amid an increase in crime.
More than a year ago, the subways came to a screeching halt. The pandemic stopped 24-hour service for the first time in 116 years to allow cleaning.
“You can really feel the sense of optimism,” MTA Chairman Pat Foye said Sunday.
Trains will no longer stop running between 2 and 4 a.m. for disinfecting, but will be cleaned when they arrive at a terminal station.
