NEW YORK - The MTA is now offering more detailed information about service changes on its apps, on its website, and in its stations.

The agency has created seven new categories of service status that it will provide on a line-by-line basis.

For example, if a train is delayed, the Service Status Box will say something like Part Suspended, Trains Rerouted, or Express to Local and show exactly which line is affected.

The other four categories are Local to Express, Stations Skipped, Slow Speeds, and Multiple Impacts.

New York City Transit President Andy Byford says the changes will help riders make faster decisions about how to get where they're going.
