Sorry to hear you’re too cool, Kerry. The MTA reports that subway cars have thermostats set to either 72.5 degrees or 75 degrees Fahrenheit. The agency says that the temperature depends on the length of the subway car, and like your thermostat at home, it’s triggered to turn on the air conditioning when a car exceeds the set temperature.
MTA spokesperson Kayla Shults says the agency has “been increasing the level of detail included in service alerts, which may make it seem like there are more service changes than usual, but it's really that the MTA continues to improve and increase its customer communication.”that more than 137,000 weekday subway trains were delayed during the first four months of the year, a 30% increase from the same period of 2023, according to MTA data.
