Project Description

In the five New York City boroughs we face many delays on our way to work, home, school, etc. What are the causes of these issues and how can they be fixed?
This paper explains ways of how to decrease the noise levels, safety and delay times associated with our subway MTA. The main goal is to keep the train schedule to be conflict-free as much as possible in case of any perturbations, and to install a barrier that blocks the tracks from the platform and keep the passengers safe until the trains arrive.
