Rogue migrants buses arrive in NYC again, just hours ahead of Mayor Adams’ crackdown on bus companies
NY Post
A handful of rogue migrant buses rolled into the Big Apple during the early morning on Friday— just hours before Mayor Eric Adams’ crackdown on unannounced asylum seeker drop-offs went into effect.
A small number of buses arrived at the Port Authority Bus Terminal around midnight, which falls outside of the new mandated arrival times, city officials told The Post.
The charter bus companies, though, avoided criminal charges with City Hall granting a two-day grace period for the strict new guidelines that were rolled out by Mayor Eric Adams days after a record number of buses, 14, arrived in NYC on a single night.
Under the new rules, buses are only allowed to drop off migrants in a single Midtown location, on West 41st Street between Eight and Ninth Avenue, between 8:30 a.m. and 12 p.m. each weekday.
Charter bus companies also need to give the city’s Emergency Management Office a 32-hour heads-up before stopping in the Big Apple, according to the new rules, which Adams announced on Wednesday.
The rules officially went into effect Friday afternoon with cops monitoring the drop-off area for any buses that arrive outside of that time frame, according to City Hall.
