Who is allowed on NYCT property?

Access to NYCT property is strictly regulated to ensure safety and security. Authorized personnel are those individuals who have received specific training, clearance, or permissions to be in those areas for the purposes of their job responsibilities or other official functions. This encompasses a wide range of individuals—such as employees, contractors, and other approved workers—who need to be on the property to perform their duties.

Having authorized personnel on NYCT property helps maintain order and ensures that all activities conducted there meet safety protocols and operational guidelines. This creates a controlled environment that minimizes the risk of accidents or unauthorized access that could endanger both personnel and the public.

Options that suggest a broader access policy, such as allowing anyone with a valid ID or simply employees or contractors, do not adequately reflect the stringent access policies in place that are necessitated by safety concerns and operational needs in transit systems.
