City Hall just committed $40 million to putting seating at every eligible bus stop across the five boroughs. That means benches or leaning bars at roughly 8,750 stops that currently leave riders hovering, pacing or crouching on a curb. The rollout kicks off in November 2025 and, in true infrastructure-timeline fashion, will take up to 10 years, with 875 stops updated annually.
