Section 2—Accomplishments Customer Service and Technology Initiatives Interagency—Customer Service/Technology Initiatives . Improved transparency and customer access to real-time service information through email alerts, social media, and expanded features at the MTA public website at www.mta.info. Opened up collaborations with outside app developers working on MTA-related customer service applications, providing direct access to data at the Developer Resources page on the MTA website. Consolidated outside phone lines across all agencies, reducing MTA’s customer service numbers from 118 phone numbers to just 23 numbers, routed through more efficient Interactive Voice Recognition (IVR) calling trees. Conducted an agency-wide MTA customer survey pinpointing areas of highest and lowest customer satisfaction by operations, agencies, new technologies, personal safety, and other indicators. Began migrating agency email systems onto a single cross-agency platform and consolidating servers, data, and IT functions from 34 separate facilities to three main MTA data centers. NYC Transit (Subways)—Customer Service/Technology Initiatives . Continued the rollout of new Public Address/Customer Information Screens (PA/CIS), which will ultimately be deployed at 156 subway stations, providing customers with on-location, real-time information, including electronic text signs, ―countdown clocks,‖ and audio public address. Installed ―countdown clocks,‖ which have been activated at over 100 subway stations to date, providing
