The Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) today announced it will host the next installment of its Open House series on the 2025-2029 Capital Plan in Downtown Brooklyn. This Open House will take place at Brooklyn Borough Hall from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 21. It follows the upcoming Open House taking place at the Queens Public Library at Central (Jamaica) from 4:00 to 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 13. Members of the public are encouraged to attend these Open Houses to learn more about the Capital Plan and speak with MTA leadership.  

Open Houses feature an exhibition of informational posters, pamphlets, and videos explaining key elements of the Capital Plan, and agency representatives are on hand to answer questions. Information is also available on career opportunities at the MTA, business opportunities for Minority-, Women-, Disadvantaged-, and Service-Disabled Veteran-owned firms, and fare discount programs. 

Previously, the MTA co-hosted an Open House with Representative Jerry Nadler, State Senator Liz Krueger, and Assembly Member Alex Bores in Manhattan at Grand Central's Vanderbilt Hall on Oct.21.

The MTA will continue to host additional Open Houses in the operating region throughout the end of the year. 

"Our next capital plan will transform the way New Yorkers move around Brooklyn and Queens, and it starts by hearing directly from commuters on the issues they care about the most," said MTA Construction & Development President Jamie Torres-Springer. "We're looking forward to telling Brooklynites how we plan to build better, faster, and cheaper projects to secure a new generation of great public transit."

The Capital Plan is a historic $68.4 billion investment in the region's subways, buses, railroads, bridges, and tunnels over the next five years that ensures New Yorkers continue to have access to reliable, accessible, and sustainable transit. It includes targeted investments to rebuild, improve, and expand the MTA system. It will enable the MTA to continue to provide frequent and reliable service by putting the system on a path to a state of good repair, including investments in railcars, power, and signals. The plan will also improve the customer experience, with investments in accessibility, stations, and modern fare gates, and take action on climate change, including resiliency and sustainability initiatives. The 2025-2029 Capital Plan builds on the most detailed system-wide evaluation the MTA has ever undertaken, the Twenty-Year Needs Assessment.
