Council Member Riley asks about the ADA accessibility components at the new Metro North stations. The MTA representative confirms that all four new stations will be fully ADA accessible.
- All new stations will have elevators for ADA access.
- Stairs will also be designed to be ADA accessible, with wider dimensions to accommodate those who may not need an elevator but require more space.
- The design ensures accessibility for all users, including those with mobility challenges.

So all 4 of these new stations will have ADA access ability elements, they'll all have elevators and stairs as well, but those stairs will be the ADA accessible for someone who does not maybe need an elevator but needs wider ADA capacity for stairs.
