GOV. MALLOY STATEMENT ON TUESDAY'S SPECIAL MEETING OF THE MTA BOARD

(HARTFORD, CT) - Governor Dannel P. Malloy on Monday afternoon released the following statement in response to the announcement that the MTA Board will hold a special meeting Tuesday afternoon to consider approving a credit for customers of Metro-North Railroad's New Haven Line, whose service has been disrupted since last week because of the failure of a Con Edison feeder cable.

"Approving a refund to commuters isn't just the right thing to do - it's what they need to do. It's incumbent on the MTA and ConEd to deal with this problem and get it fixed, and it's critical that Connecticut residents get reimbursed as quickly as possible."
