In Subway Map Key, add PATH logo and the following information: “Port Authority Trans-Hudson (PATH) service is operated by the Port Authority of NY & NJ. PATH trains make all station stops, so black circles should be used to indicate local service. Replace current blue squares representing World Trade Center, Christopher St, 9th St, 14th St, 23rd St, and 33rd St stations with circles and labels that match the visual style of New York City Subway stations. Display PATH as a Rapid Transit Service - Show PATH lines using a solid line rendered in the light blue color used for the PATH logo. Proposed: A More Complete Map, Displayed on Both Systemsġ.

Hudson Waterfront is Missing - PATH connects New York and New Jersey, but the Hudson Waterfront and stations across the river from Manhattan are missing from the current Subway Map, so Subway riders who want to connect to PATH to reach destinations in New Jersey currently see no information about where PATH can take them.

This appears to be an incorrect application of the MTA visual style guide, and doesn’t effectively communicate to Subway riders that PATH is also a rapid-transit service. However, PATH is represented on the Subway Map using the visual style labeled “Commuter rail service” in the map’s key: pale blue “railroad track” lines, square station markers, and small, lightweight text labels. The current fleet of PATH train cars (PA5) are an updated version of the Subway cars (R142A) used on the 4 and 6 trains. It operates 24/7, provides frequent service with short headways (time between trains), accepts the same pay-per-ride MetroCard as the Subway for fare payment, and has six underground stations in Manhattan (four with direct physical connections to the New York City Subway). PATH is Incorrectly Represented - PATH is a rapid-transit system.The current New York City Subway Map shows the PATH tracks and stations in Manhattan, but there are several deficiencies with the current display.
