长岛铁路工会拒绝合同提议，罢工风险迫近
摘要
长岛铁路工会可能于9月18日发起罢工，此前他们拒绝了三年内9.5%的加薪提议，罢工可能扰乱近30万乘客的日常通勤。
长岛铁路（LIRR）工会威胁最早将于9月18日星期四发起罢工，这将导致长岛铁路服务全面停摆。大都会运输署（MTA）一直在与工会进行谈判，提出三年内9.5%的加薪方案——该方案已被约一半的长岛铁路员工接受。然而，一些工会拒绝了该提议，寻求更高的加薪幅度。
罢工将严重影响每天依赖长岛铁路通勤的近30万乘客。MTA正在制定应急计划，包括在工作日为关键工作人员和无法远程办公的人员提供有限的穿梭巴士服务。这些巴士将在高峰时段每10分钟一班，从指定的长岛铁路车站开往皇后区的地铁换乘点。
建议通勤者为严重拥堵和延误做好准备，因为没有直接替代长岛铁路服务的方案。MTA建议避免非必要出行，尽可能在家办公。对于必须通勤的人来说，无论选择何种交通方式，都应预留充足的出行时间。
MTA将继续与工会进行谈判，力求避免罢工，最大限度减少对日常通勤者的影响。
