Riders have the power to transform our public transit system

Eight million New Yorkers ride the bus and subway every day. That’s bigger than the entire populations of Nevada and Connecticut combined. Imagine what we can win when we work together to demand the public transit system we deserve.

We are a grassroots movement led by bus and subway riders from across the city. Together, we’re shaping an agenda for building frequent, reliable, accessible, and affordable public transit and holding elected officials accountable to their promises of delivering a better system. Our goal is to save transit today, and transform it for generations to come. 

Issues

What we fight for


Since we formed in 2012, Riders Alliance members have identified the most pressing issues facing transit, organized their communities, and successfully lobbied elected officials to commit to ambitious agendas around improving public transit.
