Subway elevator and escalator outages from the Metropolitan Transportation Authority's public real-time outage feed, the same data behind its elevator and escalator status page. Our list refreshes once a day, so it can lag the MTA's own page by up to a day, and a short outage can show as lasting until the next refresh. Planned work is counted once it begins.
