Friday is the last day on the job for Sarah Feinberg, who is stepping down as interim president of the New York City Transit Authority.

The MTA has not said what caused the problem.
The mayor presented the MTA with a fake $15 billion check Tuesday, saying that implementing congestion pricing would effectively invest that same amount into the city's mass transit.
