MTA ceases Twitter updates, citing unreliability.

TL;DR Summary
The Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) in New York City has stopped sharing real-time train delays, bus route changes, and other service information on Twitter due to the platform's unreliable nature. The MTA's access to Twitter was involuntarily interrupted twice in April. The agency will continue to use Twitter for branding and messaging, and customers can still tweet at the MTA for questions and requests. The MTA suggests using its website, apps, email alerts, and text messages for service information.
