"The Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) is using communications-based train control (CBTC) technology to modernize and automate the New York City Subway. CBTC is a type of Automatic Train Operation (ATO) that can improve the subway system in several ways, including:
Faster and more frequent service
Trains can run closer together, allowing for more frequent service, shorter waits, and less crowding.
More reliable service
CBTC can reduce issues and speed up recovery when problems do occur. For example, the first lines converted to CBTC have on-time performance that's consistently near or above 90%.
Smoother ride
CBTC allows trains to travel at higher speeds without compromising safety.
Better information
CBTC can provide more information about train location and performance, which can help with troubleshooting and problem resolution. "
