M.T.A. plans for next phase of Second Avenue Subway
Ryan Hutchins
With more than a year of work remaining on the first phase of the M.T.A.’s Second Avenue subway extension, the agency said Thursday it hopes to start planning for another round of construction soon.
Chairman Thomas Prendergast, testifying for a state Assembly committee, said the second phase of the extension will be included in the Metropolitan Transportation Authority's five-year capital plan when it is presented to the board next month, according to his prepared remarks. The plan will run from 2015 through 2019.
