Very few stations on the New York City Subway are handicapped accessible; most that are lie on recently constructed lines or are terminal stations. In an interesting twist, the G is accessible as a connector route (via same-platform transfers on both ends) except during rush hours and middays, when it ends at Long Island City-Court Square , where stairs are required to transfer.

The MTA buses are all accessible.
