Long Island Rail Road strike to end as MTA, unions reach tentative deal
The deal delivers raises for workers and protects riders and taxpayers, while phased service is set to resume at noon, Hochul said.
- The Long Island Rail Road strike will end after the Metropolitan Transportation Authority and unions reached a tentative agreement announced by New York Governor Kathy Hochul.
- Unions representing about 3,500 workers initiated the strike due to disputes over pay and work rules with rail management.
- Negotiations restarted on Sunday and Monday after Governor Hochul urged both parties to return to talks.
- Service on the Long Island Rail Road will resume Tuesday at noon as part of a phased return, according to Governor Hochul.
