NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – Prompted by a surge in subway ridership in New York City, the MTA has announced increased service will be coming to four subway lines.

The 2, 7, L and M trains will all see extra service come December, the MTA said in a statement.

“We constantly look at ridership trends and make necessary changes along routes when we see an increased demand along particular corridors in the city,” MTA spokesperson Kevin Ortiz told 1010 WINS.
