The MTA posted on its website plans to issue prorated refunds to LIRR riders should a strike take effect. 

"We intend to issue prorated refunds to May monthly ticket holders for any business day that service is suspended due to the strike, pending board approval," the MTA wrote, adding more details on the process will be released. 

The agency also laid out alternate ways of getting around from Nassau County into New York City should the commuter rail line shut down beginning 12:01 a.m. Saturday.
