While there was some optimism as talks continued Monday, LIRR service would not resume until tomorrow even if a deal were reached today, MTA chair and CEO Janno Lieber said Monday.
Speaking to WABC-TV, Janno said, "We are headed in a positive direction but we have to get it finished."
Even if the MTA and LIRR unions reach an agreement, passengers can expect a delay before services resume.
"If we can get a deal done, we can have service on the next day," Lieber said.
