Gov. Kathy Hochul’s initiative to improve subway safety is officially underway, as the NYPD deployed 100 officers at the Metropolitan Avenue Subway Station.

The first phase of the plan, which calls for two officers to be present on each overnight train, kicked off Tuesday night.

Officers are expected to ride the trains between 9 p.m. and 5 a.m.

Some commuters are welcoming the move as a necessary measure to combat subway crime, while others remain skeptical.

“I know a lot of people who are scared to go on the trains after a certain time because of how things have been going lately,” said Mattias, a Downtown Brooklyn resident.

Another commuter told News 12 this is the first step to a safer subway.

“In case there’s an incident on the train, cops are there to assist. It helps a little bit. I mean, it’s better than nothing,” said Austin Peter, of Crown Heights.

Hochul’s full safety plan will be implemented in phases over the coming weeks, with the NYPD aiming to complete the rollout by the end of January.
