WaitTime NY is a free guide to waiting in New York. It brings wait times and travel conditions for New York City and Westchester into one place: community-reported and estimated waits for popular places, live subway and bus arrivals from official MTA feeds alongside Metro-North and LIRR service alerts, airport security information for JFK, LaGuardia, and Newark, wait guidance for DMV offices, Social Security card centers, and other government services, and official National Weather Service forecasts for every borough and Westchester.
It is built for anyone whose day depends on a line — commuters deciding when to head to the platform, travelers budgeting time before a flight, residents heading to a DMV or clinic, and visitors who would rather explore the city than stand in it. A free account lets you save favorite places, lines, and airports, and share wait times so the next person in line knows what to expect.
WaitTime NY is built and maintained by the WaitTime NY team. We are not affiliated with the MTA, the Port Authority, New York State, or any government agency — we are an independent project, and you should always confirm critical travel and service information with the official agency.
Honest data, clearly labeled. Every time we show is labeled by where it came from: Official · Live comes straight from official real-time feeds, Community Reported is shared by users like you, and Estimated · Illustrative is a planning estimate. Nothing is ever labeled live unless it truly is, and we do not guarantee that any wait time is accurate or current.
