MTA Accessibility – Systemwide Initiatives 

Thursday July 21, 2022

6pm ET

The MTA Accessibility team works to enhance accessibility across all modes within the transit system. The team works with partners across the agency to improve customer communications, set design standards on subways, buses, and railroads, enhance Access-A-Ride service, engage customers, and provide employee education.

Join Sara Bahri from the MTA Accessibility team and Josh Gee, Director of Rider Products at the MTA for a presentation about enhancing transit accessibility. Learn about accessibility features in the transit system today - including some you may not know about - and preview new technology and infrastructure solutions being explored throughout the transit system. Help us celebrate the 32nd Anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and think about the future of transit accessibility and how to build a system that is truly, universally, accessible.

All attendees are welcome. You will have the option to turn on automatic captions for this virtual program. Staff will share instructions for how to do so at the start of the event. Please email [email protected] with any questions.
