Subway and bus workers approved a new contract with the MTA on Monday for 8 percent raises over five years.
It passed overwhelmingly, with 82 percent of transit workers voting yes.
“Transit workers can hold their heads high by having won raises in every year of the five-year deal,” said union president John Samuelsen.
They will get retroactive pay hikes of 1 percent for 2012 and 2013, followed by 2 percent raises in 2014, 2015 and 2016.
Workers will also chip in more for their health care.
