Livestream Continues to Be Available   

 

The Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) hybrid Board and committee meetings will be held later this month. On Monday, March 28 starting at 9:00 a.m. and continuing throughout the day, MTA Board committee chairs will convene meetings of the Long Island Rail Road, Metro-North Railroad, New York City Transit and Bus, MTA Bridges and Tunnels, Finance, Capital Program, Corporate Governance and Diversity committees. On Wednesday, March 30, a meeting of the full MTA Board will begin at 10:00 a.m.       

MTA Board and Committee meetings will all provide for the public to weigh in on Authority business for a total of up to 60 minutes, from either the MTA’s 2 Broadway headquarters or a remote location. Speakers will be allotted up to two minutes each. 

Under this, public speakers will continue to register on the day of the meeting. Should the maximum amount of time be reached, any additional speakers who cannot be accommodated will have the opportunity to provide video comments that will be sent to members of the board and posted online. Those additional recorded comments will also be included on the MTA’s YouTube page at the conclusion of the formal meeting.      

A post-meeting news conference will begin approximately 30 minutes after the conclusion of the board meeting on March 30. Accredited news media representatives are invited to join and ask questions at the news conference either in-person or via Zoom.      

Members of the public at committee and board meetings are required to adhere to the MTA’s Code of Conduct. For safety reasons, the following protocols will be in effect on Monday, March 28 and Wednesday, March 30:        

  • Capacity for the public is limited to 52 people, who will be admitted on a first come, first served basis. There will be an overflow room that can hold up to an additional 25 members of the public.    

  • Anyone who feels ill is asked to stay home and seek advice from a healthcare provider.   

For details on meeting schedules and procedures for public participation, to watch meeting livestreams and access meeting materials, the public is encouraged to visit MTA Board Meeting, March 2022.
