MTA workers were seen cleaning around a homeless man sprawled out on a
subway car at East 96th Street on Monday — and the agency says that’s
just standard operating procedure despite the coronavirus pandemic.
The stunning scene came during a photo op of subway cleaning arranged by
the MTA’s press office, but staff said they were powerless to do
anything about vagrants without cops or city outreach workers present —
and officials acknowledged that’s par for the course.
“We do not ask our workforce or our cleaners to engage in social
services or to engage with someone who isn’t interested in moving or
doesn’t want to move,” Interim Transit President Sarah Feinberg said at
a separate press event over Zoom.
“Certainly we don’t ask or allow people to get into a confrontation with
anyone. That is exactly what of the many problems we are trying to solve
for at the moment.”
