Paying LIRR workers the raises they demand in order to prevent a strike next month could lead the MTA to hike fares by 8% in 2027, cut jobs, or slash service, officials said.

Ahead of a potential May 16 LIRR work stoppage, officials released new details of a strike contingency plan, including rush hour shuttle buses running between five locations on Long Island and two Queens subway stations.

An impromptu negotiating session between LIRR labor leaders and MTA managers ended with no settlement, but with plans for further talks.
