Subway entrances that are vulnerable to flooding have been retrofitted with flex gates. They roll out to completely cover and seal off stairs, which prevents water from entering. This makes stations less likely to flood. This one at Court Sq in Queens passed the test! https://t.co/B34KucABO6 — PolitiTweet.org

We fully rehabilitated and fortified 11 underwater subway tunnels that flooded, including the Canarsie tunnel on the L line. Pumping systems were upgraded, damaged components were replaced, and we strengthened the protections on our electrical systems. https://t.co/7ssI0tBp6O — PolitiTweet.org

Flood barriers were installed in train yards and along sections of lines in low-lying areas, including Coney Island Yard, 207 St Yard, and the A line in the Rockaways. These retaining walls will make it less likely that rising waters will infiltrate our system. https://t.co/CX15TiKOc4 — PolitiTweet.org
