Governor Kathy Hochul announced on Tuesday during her State of the State address a new plan to increase subway safety in New York City, including new infrastructure improvements and increased police presence on trains.

Hundreds of NYPD officers will start patrolling overnight trains next week, Gov. Kathy Hochul said Thursday – finally detailing her much-anticipated subway safety surge. “Monday, you’ll start to see the overnight presence on the trains,” she said, wearing a windbreaker in a Grand Central Station news conference.

New York City Gov. Kathy Hochul announced Thursday that she is deploying more police officers to the New York City subway system.

Subway riders will have some company on board trains beginning Monday night. NYPD officers will be riding all the trains in teams of two. The program will be phased in with the operation at full force by month’s end.

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul has announced a new $77 million plan to clamp down on subway crime, while the MTA has also begun installing spikes on some of its turnstiles to stop fare evaders.

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul laid out an ambitious agenda for 2025 during her State of the State address at the Hart Theater in Albany on Tuesday.

Several New York City subway riders that spoke with Fox News Digital said they were concerned for their safety amid an influx of high-profile crime stories.

N.Y. Gov. Kathy Hochul plans to allocate $77 million to have a police officer stationed on every subway overnight, sources say.

The state has helped to fund the NYPD’s overtime in the past and although Hochul said this was funding that would be worked out with the legislature during budget negotiations, her staff had to later clarify that the city and state will actually be splitting the cost.

Hochul’s state-funded proposal puts NYPD officers on every train for eight hours per night for the next six months.

The deployment will include 300 officers deployed on every overnight train and an additional 750 on stations and platforms, the governor said.

A 20-year-old man was slashed with a box cutter during a fight with an older man on a subway train entering Penn Station, MTA officials said Saturday. The attack came just a day after Gov. Kathy Hochul vowed to put police on every overnight subway train in the system.
