Riders have the power to transform our public transit system
Eight million New Yorkers ride the bus and subway every day. That’s bigger than the entire populations of Nevada and Connecticut combined. Every single rider has a story to share about what’s not working, ideas about what we can do better, and something important to contribute to our movement. Imagine what we can win when we work together and demand the public transit system we deserve.
We are a grassroots movement led by bus and subway riders from across the city. Together, we are shaping an agenda for building frequent, reliable, accessible, and affordable public transit and holding elected officials accountable to their promises of delivering a better system. Our goal is to save transit today, and transform it for generations to come.
