    The Metropolitan Transportation Authority on Monday launched a new website and app called MYmta, giving riders the ability to plan journeys on the subway, buses and commuter rail as well as to see real-time service information as they travel.

    MTA Managing Director Ronnie Hakim said the new tools are a response to calls from riders for “convenient, accurate information in a way that I can manage myself using the devices that I carry in my pocket.”
