MTA sues feds to recover $58.6M for Second Avenue Subway
TL;DR Summary
The MTA filed a breach-of-contract lawsuit in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims seeking $58.6 million in reimbursements for work completed on the Second Avenue Subway Phase 2, arguing the federal government improperly paused funds tied to a federal grant and that the withholding could slow construction and jeopardize riders and jobs. Gov. Hochul criticized the Trump administration for the funding disruption, while USDOT said funding pauses are part of oversight and reserved the right to take legal action.
