Please review the metadata for a description of the contents, creation, and use limitations of the shapefiles. Read this post for pointers on applying colors and styles. The data is intended for non-commercial use for basic geographic analysis and mapping purposes, and will be updated bi-annually. This page contains the most recent versions of the data. Some layers are not updated bi-annually because there were no changes between the current source data and the last published version. For previous version versions see the NYC Mass Transit Spatial Layers Archive.
