MTA Launches New App To Help Riders Plan Alternative Travel During Overnight Subway Shutdown

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — The MTA has launched a new app to help essential workers commute to their jobs while the subway is shutdown overnight.

The Essential Connector app offers a real-time map to navigate the MTA’s enhanced overnight bus service.

Users can also track train service by station or book a for-hire vehicle at no extra cost.
