The Snowbound Nyc Underground Map


WNYC has created a fictional interactive map explaining how the New York underground organization could last a hereafter snowmaggedon. On 26th Jan the MTA completely closed the underground organization because of a snowstorm. WYNC has formulated a excogitation to unopen off the overground sections of the underground organization during hereafter snowstorms together with therefore that the hush-hush parts could proceed to run.

The Snowpiercer Scenario is a Mapbox map using custom map tiles of the MTA. The overground parts of the underground organization are faded out on the map, indicating that these lines would live closed. The remaining underground lines are the ones which would remain open.

The WNYC acknowledge that their excogitation together with map was created from 'wild speculation'. However the excogitation seems real sensible. The MTA says that they convey no plans which enable 'hiving off an hush-hush share of the system'. The London Underground seems to cope to live able to produce this on a regular basis. Every weekend sections of but about London Underground lines are closed for 'planned technology scientific discipline work'. Surely the MTA could produce something like inwards New York.
