It may be a wild ride for the next MTA chief.
With MTA Chairman Joseph Lhota leaving his post at the end of the month as he considers a run for mayor, his yet-to-named successor will have to steer the agency through some big changes scheduled for 2013. Here is a look at what's planned for next year:
Bus riders should also be able to track all bus locations using the MTA's app, Bus Time, by the end of 2013.
The agency restored some subway service less than a week after the storm hit, and has slowly added back most service throughout the city since October.
Officials say it's faster, safer and cheaper to cancel trains along a section of a route for the repairs and maintenance.
