Harry Posted October 2, 2012 Share #1 Posted October 2, 2012 [float=left][/float]The MTA's TripPlanner+ now gives you real-time information about any service disruptions that could affect the subways, buses or railroad trains you'd need to use on your trip.

Via Garibaldi 8 Posted October 2, 2012 Share #2 Posted October 2, 2012 This is great.... Now if they could only get Bus Time done early and get the countdown clocks are more stations, a lot of folks would be even happier... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threxx Posted October 2, 2012 Share #3 Posted October 2, 2012 When the BMT gets an automatic dispatching system, countdown clocks will follow. Currently, only the IRT and CBTC lines can have them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gong Gahou Posted October 2, 2012 Share #4 Posted October 2, 2012 The only flaw that I came across was that Trip Planner will alert you even if the service change will not be affecting that particular itinerary, but it's pretty minor. A little common sense will fix that error, although I don't know what others will think. Other than that this is a great improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYCRailfan523 Posted October 3, 2012 Share #5 Posted October 3, 2012 I just hope this won't be a waste of money. Well that's a good app, it will tell you if there are service disruptions in the subway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
