> Changes
>

>
> The Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) announced today it will
> hold eight public hearings across the metropolitan region to solicit input on
> proposed service changes needed to help address a nearly $400 million budget
> gap that developed in December. The MTA Board needed to act quickly to pass a
> balanced budget in December as required, relying on a package of proposed
> service reductions prepared in 2008 but never instated. Over the past month,
> MTA Chairman and CEO Jay H. Walder oversaw a review of these proposals to
> ensure they were designed to limit impact on customers. In many cases,
> changes have been made to provide service more efficiently and reduce the
> number of customers affected.
>
> "While the cuts in funding to the MTA require painful actions, we have
> worked hard to limit the impact on customers," said MTA Chairman and CEO Jay
> H. Walder. "We are now making an unprecedented level of information available
> to the public so our customers understand exactly how these proposals were
> developed and the impacts they will have well in advance of the public
> hearings."
>
> The revised list of proposed service changes is available online at
> www.mta.info<http://www.mta.info/>. The schedule of public hearings listed
> below is also available online and will be officially noticed in early
> February. Advanced online registration to speak at one of the hearings will
> open at that time, and comments can also be submitted by email or regular
> mail. Following the public hearings, a final decision to implement the major
> service changes will be considered by the MTA board.
>
> All hearings start at 6pm.
