During the week, the New York City subway lines and bus routes are the most crowded in the nation. The 109 year old system accomodates 8 million passengers each day. To deal with that heavy load, the system is pretty much always undergoing repairs and maintenance, mostly on the weekends. Before the MTA released their Weekender app, hoards of New Yorkers were frustrated and quite angry over the fact that the weekend schedule for subways and buses differed from the weekday schedule. To remedy this, MTA released The Weekender app in June 2012 for both Apple and Android. Over 100,000 users have downloaded the app. Now, weekend travelers know what lines are under repair, when to expect delays and when there will be smooth sailing.
