Parents and caregivers can now roll onto more MTA buses without folding their strollers.
NEW YORK CITY (TIP): By the end of 2026, more than 5,800 local and Select Bus Service buses will have a marked area near the rear door where riders can secure one open stroller, the MTA announced. There might not be a bumper sticker slapped on the back of buses, but babies are officially on board with the MTA. And, their strollers are officially coming along for the ride.
Approximately 75 percent of the MTA’s bus fleet now has designated stroller spaces.
The expansion gives families a dedicated place to ride while keeping wheelchair priority areas available for riders who use mobility devices.
“We understand even the youngest New Yorkers have places to be and we’re ensuring our bus network continues to get them there,” Demetrius Crichlow, New York City Transit president said.
