April Board Meeting Updates
Because of the ongoing COVID-19 public health crisis, we changed how our April 2020 board meeting worked. The MTA Chairman convened a one-day, virtual board and committee meeting on Wednesday, April 22.
The meeting included the full MTA board and the following committees:
- Long Island Rail Road and Metro-North Railroad
- New York City Transit
- MTA Bridges and Tunnels
- Finance
- Safety
- Capital Program Oversight Committee
We want to do everything we can to keep the public, our employees, and our board members safe and healthy.
