In a bid to improve the way New Yorkers communicate, Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced last week that the entire city of New York will be connected by WiFi by the end of this year.
The initiative would include the New York subway system, which is the world’s largest. The New York subway WiFi plan is said to include mobile payments, USB charging stations and WiFi for all 278 underground subway stations. The project is an attempt to get the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) prepared to meet the changing needs of the community it serves, Cuomo said.
