40 More NYC Subway Stations Get Wi-Fi

Forty more subway stations in Manhattan and Queens are getting cellphone and Wi-Fi service.

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced the service extension Thursday.

It will add service at 29 more subway stations in Queens and 11 in Manhattan.

Wi-Fi and cellphone service are already available at dozens of stations, mainly in Manhattan. Service is scheduled to be available in all underground stations by 2017.

The program is being paid for by technology company Transit Wireless.
