NYC's transit system is complex and ready for rejuvenation.
The NYC metrocard system has remained unchanged for decades.
The metrocard machines aren't clean or in the best shape, which leads to long waits, skipped ride fares and a deteriorating infrastructure that's costing the city millions.
If you're from out of town the system is confusing and leaves you getting frustrated and lost. It's a hurdle to get from one side of the city to the other. It takes a bus to get into the city, a few subway rides, a taxi, then another bus to sometimes reach your destination.
A lot of the times it takes multiple tickets to get from A to B. When traveling even a short distance, from NJ to NYC, you'll need one ticket for NJ transit, a second ticket for PATH(Port Authority Trans-Hudson), and a third to take NYC's Subway.
The solution is a unified system. Travel All Over NYC using any form of transit and one MTA Metrocard.
One card, many types of travel. Use for trains, buses, taxis, and even bike rentals.
Cards can be easily purchased and accessed using the MTA Metrocard app.
