New York City (NYC) and its transportation system is slowly getting to its feet as it begins the start of a new work week.
Following the arrival of Hurricane Sandy, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA), which handles the buses and train system for the five boroughs, suspended service following the flooding on rail tunnels and downed trees.
Limited service was granted on Thursday, mostly by buses, leading to lengthy and crowded commutes.
MTA has since worked to resurrect most of its rail lines but some stations are still closed due to flooding.
As of Nov. 4, the following are the updates on the MTA subway system ahead of Monday's commute:
