NYC's New Subway Safety Plan: Mental Health Teams, More Police Enforcement | News 4 Now

Gov. Kathy Hochul and Mayor Eric Adams unveiled plans Friday to tackle the homelessness and mental health problem on New York City’s subways, as their push for people to return to their offices runs up against the sharp rise in transit crime.

Adams, at a news conference in the Fulton Street subway station, referred to his days as a transit cop, when the subways were plagued with violence and people threw up their hands, thinking nothing could be done.
